Serve or sabotage?


A new client called me this week, because she was frustrated  and felt despondent about by her practice. She shared with me her biggest challenges, staff,  money, patients and time, all of which were causing her to be stressed, worried and sick, her future looked bleak and she could not see a way to transform her practice.

Fortunately I was able to help her feel better, discussing tips tools and strategies that she could use to improve her practice and focus on a bright future.

One of the ideas I shared was the idea that what does not serve you is actually sabotaging you.

you and your practice are like a plant if you are not growing you are  dying.

Because you want something better for yourself your team and your patients,, now would be a good time to prune out those areas that are sabotaging you so that they can be replaced with supportive new shoots.

Why would you want to make a change today?

If a patient has a little niggle and the ignore it, over time it will always deteriorate and the treatment will be more complicated,  more expensive and take longer. In the meanwhile your patent will have experienced unnecessary discomfort that will have restricted their choices about what they can eat.

If you have noticed niggles in your practice, you know why you should resolve it sooner than later so that you can make your good practice great.

What can you do?

Ask yourself  what is in your practice

  • environment
  • behaviours and culture
  • skills and capabilities
  • beliefs and values
  • identity
  • vision mission and purpose
that is sabotaging you?

Having identified these factors chose what you want instead and start to implement the changes.
