As the year comes to a close and a new one begins, I bring your attention to the work of great significance you have been doing throughout your career. Every day you wake up with the lives of others in your hands and you continue to strive, improve and educate yourself to greater levels of success.
I have the great privilege of serving my Doctors and helping them reach new heights in accomplishment, meaning, fulfillment, prosperity and independence that they never thought possible.
Often, I remind each of them that the hard part is what you do in the mouths of your patients… not all the ‘stuff’ going on around it. Business is not that complicated. However, as long as you are flying by the seat of your pants, making decisions at random (or not making decisions) and just letting things happen without a deliberate plan of action, then you can be certain of three things…
1. You are working far harder (with no assurance of success) than you really need to be.
2. You still don’t really know what’s possible and you don’t really know what you are capable of; you only know what you know. Otherwise, you’d be doing things differently, better and more profitable with a lot less effort, compromise and sacrifice.
3. You absolutely and most certainly aren’t paid what you are truly worth and there is no way your skills are fully utilized in life-changing ways on a routine, daily, patient by patient basis.
I’ve yet to meet any doctor who said to me they wouldn’t like more of these 3 things (assurance of success while working Less and making more; being paid what they are worth while using their skills; and fully realizing the potential they know, or don’t know, they have).
That is exactly what we lay out together – YOUR Plan – No one else’s. If you are pursuing anyone else’s vision, plan or program other than your own, it’s going to leave you empty, unsatisfied and without anything ‘real’ being built. Create and aggressively pursue your own vision because it’s the only one worthy of all it will take to make it possible…

So why don’t more doctors achieve these worthy ambitions? Because most Doctors are either fearful or skeptical.
Being afraid is far more justifiable than being skeptical. I say that because the skeptics only gets in the way of their own successes. While you are busy being skeptical, you are completely destroying your ability to see opportunity, to discover possibility and to be responsible of YOUR success.
The bigger issue that gets in the way of you making 2019 something GREATER to you than 2018 was is FEAR.
Fear of failure, fear of success, fear of uncertainty, fear of truth. All these negative voices in your head are actually self-fulfilling prophecies. You get what you expect; which also means your reality reaffirms your expectations yielding an ever-darkening spiral. You keep waiting for the outcomes to change to give you confidence in changing the inputs.
Today, as we are about enter into 2019, I ask you to banish fear and instead…
Protect your thoughts.
Protect your self.
Protect your ambitions.
Protect your abilities.
Protect your confidence.
That means being willing to go all in before you see the cards. You must believe in your greatest gift and service to society. You must believe you already have the fortitude and the tenacity to achieve.
Here’s what I know about success: no one earns more than they actually, truly deserve through their commitment, devotion and dedication to their purpose. Whatever you are getting in your life right now – in this past year of 2018 – is what your life and practice have been set up to be.
You can continue as you are going through the motions or you can choose more, better, differently.
To want more.
To be better.
To act differently.
With a new year comes exciting times, a clean slate, a renewed focus and refreshed opportunity that is your gift to yourself that you can decide – ONE DAY AT A TIME – to squander, to waste or to use it to make something happen for yourself and to make this year count like never before.
And there in lies your greatest risk as to whether your tendency will be to settle with ‘more of the same’ while working harder and harder to get nowhere; or…
If you will double down on your goals, step up to your bigger purpose, and fight the good fight to leverage the investment in yourself.
The good news is: you deserve exactly what you make happen; nothing more and nothing less.
In 2019, your success will be in direct proportion to the belief in your ability, the clarity of your vision, the leverage of your time, and certainty of your plan.
I want the best for you. The question is: is your ‘best’ today all that it is capable of being? If not, I challenge you to go forward into 2019, without fear’s restraints, and believe in what you can achieve.
Be courageous. And know, I’ll be right here guiding you, pushing you, reminding you, helping you to get all you can out of all you have.
It all begins by you giving yourself permission to want, be, do, have, deserve – MORE!
