Body Zone rehab 2006 Seminar Schedule E-mail message this week .. Look in the Mirror Ever wonder why your practice numbers remain the same. Is it a mystery? Wonder why friends of yours attending the same seminars boost their practice the following Monday while yours didnąt even blip on the Richter scale? Think luck is not on your side? Well wonder and think no further for the answer is closer than you think. Here is a practice boosting exercise. First relax and calm your inner self. Prior to going further, close your eyes and consider what holds your practice back. Use a notepad to jot down the first things coming to your consciousness. Like meditation, the most outstanding issues bubble up first. Undoubtedly, within our business, the most prominent issues may be lack of new patients, lack of money, bills piling up, patients dropping out of care, staff issues and the garden variety of bad location, too heavy in debt, no one loves me, etc. Once you compiled all this data, itąs time to digest it and turn it all around. Oh wait, I forgot the most important piece to the practice-boosting puzzle, a mirror. When I was a young pup, my parents took me to the Bronx Zoo. The only exhibit I remember well was within the Ape Building. It was winter and the animals were kept indoors. Young and short, I tried to get close to each exhibit and see the chimps, Apes and Orangutans climb and strut their stuff. Around the corner was a large crowd peering into a large cage. As I made my way to the front, I stared into a darkened cage enclosed in thick bars with rocks and vegetation all around. The educational sign explaining what animal was within this cage mentioned that behind these bars was the most ferocious animal with the animal kingdom. This animal did not just kill for survival but for sport. It did not respect the rules within the animal kingdom as it literally extinguished whole species of animals for play. We all struggled to see what beast was in front of us but all we saw was a mirror image of ourselves behind this heavily barred cage. We were the most ferocious animal within the animal kingdom. As we left the building there was a small graveyard with crosses named for the many animals and birds that were gone forever due to sport and play. What an impact and impression it left on me. So, you want to know the best practice boosting tip .. look in the mirror and ask yourself if it is purely bad luck or karma that keeps your numbers down. Look in the mirror and superimpose one of our practice consultant gurus and for a split second consider what that person would do to turn things around. Regardless of your income, piles of bills, location or whatever, everyone can turn it around or at least turn towards making a difference. If you are at your wits end, I recommend you stop and rethink. Write down every conceivable reason your practice and life is where it is. Visit my webpage and send some questions to some mentors that are willing to help you for free and if a few bucks can be spared, attend a seminar or two and refocus your technical skills so you rekindle the fire in your belly to get sick people well.
