This might be the NUMBER ONE SKILL you need to be successful in medicine, especially emergency medicine.
If you are newer to emergency medicine and you haven't had a patient surprise you or had a situation that humbled you, YOU LIKELY WILL SOON.
I think it's very important to adopt a humble and teachable mindset no matter where you find yourself in the world of medicine. Whether you are a student or experienced provider, people will respond to you better and you will be more of an asset to your patients when you are keenly aware of the fact that YOU DONT KNOW EVERYTHING. And you never will.
Just when I think I am becoming an expert and have seen and done it all, I am quickly reminded that I AM NOT INFALLIBLE.
I learned this quickly in PA school too. No one cared how much knowledge I had or how much patient experience I had as a paramedic. I stopped talking about my prior experiences and this hurt my ego but adopting a HUMBLE AND TEACHABLE mindset made everything else much easier. Especially interactions with preceptors.
If you don't put yourself up on a pedestal, it won't hurt so bad when you trip and fall.
