Get Your Act Together We live in a very complicated chiropractic world. Most field doctors who have sent students to chiropractic college realize that in today's environment, it is either going to be more difficult for their young upstart or it will be the best days of their lives. It depends on how they spent their time in school, what resources they applied as students and clinicians and how much advice they both received and took from their field doctor or chiropractors they passed along the way. The canvas of chiropractic is littered with doctors bobbing and weaving from one technique or patient acquisition trick or another to maintain a practice. There is nothing wrong with this, in fact growth and sustenance of patients and practice management is commendable. The problem lies in the doctor that has no idea where their practice is from day to day and month to month. They are like stock investors vulnerable to daily variances to sell when they should buy and buy when they should sell. They are like weekend fisherman stocking their boats with all the tools and paraphernalia to impress their guests only to chase the breeze rather than chum where the better of them do. We all know a DC who has the best of equipment, incredible patient educational tools and an office to die for, only to find that after the overhead is paid the money left over can only purchase a Big Mac or two. Impress with tricks of the trade are all well and good, but down to earth patient and practice management protocols will both win the day and pad their pockets with the profits they deserve. Doctors who study the demographics and has a grasp on the pulse of their community, focuses on sound marketing principals and sounder practice management. They work in tandem with their staff and patients to maintain a healthy practice with referring and maintaining patients. Weekends are littered with seminars and consultants providing the tools and scripts necessary to make a successful journey of this chiropractic thing. Doctors right out of college with enough brains to follow some advice and with only a few dimes to scratch together can make a go of it as they watch their practice bloom with each harvest of marketing and public relations. They only have to follow in the footsteps of those before them, the ones that did well with will and wit and most importantly followed the advice of those before them while keeping their rebellious student mindset in check. There are many doctors with years etched in their belt that never let go of their stubbornness and never leapt to where they deserve to be. It's a shame and if you feel you are amongst this crowd, it's never too late to let go and free the negative mindset for the possibilities before you. I recommend a time-out and time to reflect on where you are and where you wish to be. Be honest and as objective as possible, as if you were hovering above in an out of body experience. Where have you been reluctant to change, where has complacency and ego got in your way and what and who could help you make a change. Be honest and with every baby step this New Year and can be a year of abundance in both financial and spiritual profit.
