On this July 1st episode, I share 10 Maxims for Radiology Residency Success. Do you have your own maxims to share? If so, let me know @radrevpodcast on Twitter or theradiologyreview@gmail.com.

    **Radiology Residency: 10 Maxims for Success**

Learn as much radiology as you can while supervised because you can never predict what your unsupervised professional future may require.

Be kind and respectful to everybody, especially when you are on call.

Never waste an opportunity to learn from your mistakes.

Take care of your life outside of Radiology and you will find more satisfaction at work.

Engage with the broader Radiology community in some way that brings you joy (social media, ACR meetings, etc).

Mentor a medical student.

Reach out when you need help.

Develop life-long friendships with your faculty.

Prepare consistently to succeed on radiology board exams (and life).

Realize as early as possible that time is your most precious commodity, and live accordingly.
