Goals are discussed, action steps are considered and procedures are put in place. These are all under the umbrella of planning. If there is one component that is universal for either success or failure, it is on either side of planning. Too much abundance, too little drought. Doctor, are you planning your summer vacation? Expenses are budgeted with hotels and transportation reserved .. planning is what'll make it happen. Same graduating chiropractic college with loads of debt and a wide world before them with no road map, no idea for the next step, just a head full of knowledge, a racehorse ready to bolt. Why would someone spend years of study only to experience a void upon receiving his or her diploma? Hey, no slight on chiropractic graduates as those graduating from MIT or your local community college is in the same funk, looking and finding work. Except for one difference. As chiropractors, we can always establish a solo practice or band together with others with the purpose of helping others. Since everyone has a spine, there is no shortage of those to help. If we have the ability to find a paymaster, insurance providers, we can provide a service and receive compensation or shoo off the insurance and teach your community the reality of our work, offer affordable payment plans and go cash. Either way, we are only limited by lack of planning and follow through. You can call it lack of vision or focus, doesn't matter, as the outcomes will be the same. Luck will prevail and you'll get by or luck has noting to do with it and you fail. Either way, no plan no dice, no plan no way, no plan and you'll be spending money foolishly and paying a harsh price down the road when you have to gather proper data and reinvent the experience to make it right. So, if you intend to jumpstart promotions for Spring, establish a Health Fair within your community, participate in a community screening or begin offering workshops to your civic and corporate neighbors then get busy. If you are graduating in the coming weeks or months and have a vague idea what your next step is, if you are deciding on a clinic location or making big decisions to hire staff or boost your marketing budget then get busy. If you have no one to discuss this with, you always have me by e-mailing me at: joel3639@aol.com or visiting my webpage and look under mentors, these are doctors that will help you for free. My webpage under Weblinks has the links to most of our professional consultants. You can call you state association and ask for the district president to find those willing to help locally. I often teach at Dr. Pete Fernandez seminars in Atlanta and Orlando, they can be reached at 1-800-882-4476. But, get busy gathering data and compiling it. It's all in the planning Have a Great Day Dr. M Postings: Dr. Joel E.
