First Impresions It's impossible to make a first impression a second time. Of yes .. we have opportunities to create that second chance and make things right or change our approach .. but that first impression is huge. As we wind down 2003 and contemplate our goals and resolutions for the New Year let's give thought about all the missed opportunities we lost due to poor first impressions. I often give thought of writing a play .. an opera .. a novel or a child's book and when my thought gets closer to reality I begin by planning the opening paragraph .. that first impression that either attracts a person to read on or quickly look for another book. It's simply sink or swim time. As chiropractors we have many opportunities to write a new chapter in the lives of our community as people venture towards increased Health and Wellness through chiropractic care. They depend on your total focus and sincerity all hinging on that first impression. It may be your telephone or other advertisements .. your front desk CA .. the office location and parking .. your office building .. your office entrance .. your reception room seats and reading material .. forms they are asked to complete .. the tone and appearance of your staff .. music being played .. wall colors and pictures .. office dÈcor .. bathroom facilities .. the adjusting and therapy equipment and most importantly .. YOU. All this and more create that first impression. How do your rate? I imagine it is hard to analyze that first impression again after spending years in your clinic where even the torn table or musty odors have neutralized you to normality. Every day offers another chance to make things right but first you must collect your thoughts and appraise the reality that is you. You create the office atmosphere or at least put up with it. You accept the level of training and knowledge of your staff as well as your limited technical ability. You chose the tables and equipment or lack thereof. You bought into the philosophy of your technique or chiropractic awareness and either adhere to the whim of others or go with the flow. You are drawn to laziness or uncontrolled energy that often drives you in circles with little forward movement. You may drag personal problems into the office and get sucked into the negative wallowing of others. You may have a bag full of compulsive disorders that drives you nuts and reduces your self-esteem. But we are human animals and can reason and change each day. Therefore .. as we near the end of 2003 and entertain our hopes for 2004 what will it be? Mediocrity or near Perfection .. Complacency or Change.. Staying in the Rut or One Step at a Time .. Simply Failure or Success. Take stock of which you are. Since we have a few weeks before the New Year and the season of reflection is upon us .. do reflect and project yourselves taking the baby steps towards positive change or great leaps to get you to the next level. We need to get that first impression right the first time Have a Great Day Dr. M Postings: Practice for sale in Columbia SC: Great starter practice. $30,000. 2 year old practice with all equipment, tables, therapy equipment, office equipment, files, outside sign, x-ray machine and x-ray processor and leasehold improvements.
