Dentists are like frogs

If am often struck as to the similarity between frogs and dentists.

If you put a frog into boiling water it jumps out immediately.

If you put a frog in cold water and gradually turn the heat up, it continually readjusts its self to the hostile environment and eventually boils alive.

I notice many dentists, particularly though not exclusively in NHS practice, change and adapt to the situation around them, as a consequence, they often become chronically sick, miserable, have failed relationships abuses legal and illegal substances , rather than jumping and taking a completely new path.

As to your reasons for in the hot water, otherwise known as your comfort zone, it could be fear, habit, lack of imagination, expectation from others, many other reasons.

And yet I invite you to consisder.....

Is your comfort zone really that comfortable?

If you were guaranteed to succeed, what would you do differently?

Imagine that you have taken that new path, as you look back to now what are some of the other areas of your life that have been enriched as a result?
