Lifestyle Practice Manifesto &#8211; Part 5"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>We have finally arrived and brought this whole thing full circle.\u00a0\u00a0If you want to know the truth about most Dentists (maybe you) it\u2019s that they have no real idea at all what their actual Profit is.<\/p>\n<p>Some Doctors pay themselves a paltry salary at the advice of their accountant (who hasn\u2019t ever and won\u2019t ever reach the level of income that a Dentist makes).\u00a0\u00a0I love accountants for what they do, but they aren\u2019t business strategist.\u00a0\u00a0They are counters of money already made \u2013 not money makers, but money organizers.\u00a0\u00a0It\u2019s a shocking tragedy that anyone would intentionally pay themselves less because of taxes or worse still cap their own incomes.<\/p>\n<p>On top of this problem, dentists actually think that spending endlessly on CE trips to nice places and the latest technology (that is ironically and intentionally obsolete every few years), is part of the \u201cDoctor Lifestyle\u201d and how it\u2019s supposed to be done.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, I am, as you know, all about education and all about advanced technology \u2013 with a purpose, with a return on investment, with appropriate planning and always with a PLAN that first incorporates the most important payment every single month\u2026<\/p>\n<p>YOU!<\/p>\n<p>This is the money for you to show up, the money for your expertise, the money for your sacrifice and the money for your investment.<\/p>\n<p>There is no portion of the money more important to your practice success than the PROFIT part.\u00a0The piece left over.\u00a0\u00a0Sadly, you won\u2019t have any left over if you don\u2019t plan for it.<\/p>\n<p>The Lifestyle Practice Manifesto says that it\u2019s not enough just to have \u201cincome\u201d (which you will spend, or at best you will fund your 401K which is insufficient to make you truly financially independent), but instead the point of owning the practice is to make a PROFIT.<\/p>\n<p>And it is only with PROFIT that you can truly have the autonomy, peace of mind, financial independence and overall control of your LIFESTYLE PRACTICE!<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s the deal.\u00a0\u00a0That is what separates the winners from the losers, the hobbyists from the professionals, and the just-a-dentist from a dentist-and-business-owner.<\/p>\n<p>Now, Profit doesn\u2019t \u2018just\u2019 happen.\u00a0\u00a0It has to be created, orchestrated and made possible.<\/p>\n<p>This is what my Advanced Webinar Training next week\u00a0is all about.\u00a0\u00a0How to make your own Lifestyle Practice Manifesto come to life for you in a way that brings together all five key pillars and foundational principles to practice success\u2026<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/lifestyledentalpractice.com\/\"><strong>Register For Next Week&#8217;s Live Webinar Training &gt;&gt;&gt;<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve decided to set the time aside to provide the live training because there is a lot of intensity that goes into your individual Manifesto and especially the establishment of the Profit Pillar.\u00a0\u00a0This is a webinar you don\u2019t want to miss.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps my most hard hitting, in your face, bottom line (PROFIT) based training I have ever put together and it\u2019s because this is what it\u2019s all about \u2013 The Lifestyle Practice.<\/p>\n<p>There should be no other kind of practice.\u00a0\u00a0Certainly not for my followers.\u00a0\u00a0My Doctors deserve better, the best, more than just practicing on your own terms but finally having your own Lifestyle Practice structure throughout all aspects of your life.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/lifestyledentalpractice.com\/\"><strong>Live Webinar Training: Your Lifestyle Practice Manifesto &gt;&gt;&gt;<\/strong>\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Go ahead ask yourself\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Where do you settle?\u00a0Where do you compromise?\u00a0\u00a0Where do you give in?\u00a0\u00a0What haven\u2019t you achieved?\u00a0\u00a0What have you been putting off?<\/p>\n<p>When is the last time you let yourself dream?<\/p>\n<p>When is the last time you gave yourself permission to want more, without guilt?<\/p>\n<p>Whatever your answers are, I\u2019m about to challenge you to step up and expect greatness for the one who has put it all on the line \u2013 YOU.\u00a0\u00a0You can, if you choose, make your practice more profitable than ever before.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, if you are letting profit happen on accident, if you aren\u2019t intentionally built for profit, if you don\u2019t understand the uniqueness of profitable growth and if you don\u2019t have a foundation of consistent profitable operations in your practice then the other four pillars of your Lifestyle Practice Manifesto will be completely and frustratingly elusive to you.<\/p>\n<p>Rest assured, I\u2019m not talking about being cheap.\u00a0\u00a0I\u2019m not talking about being small.\u00a0\u00a0I\u2019m not talking about squandering opportunities to pad your own bank account.\u00a0\u00a0I\u2019m talking about making smart strategic decisions about your life and practice that serve your ultimate purpose.<\/p>\n<p>Where everything serves your greater purpose and objectives, as it\u2019s supposed to.\u00a0\u00a0Where nothing in your life is at the mercy of your practice \u2013 especially not your prosperity and lifestyle.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019re about to discover the your own personal breakthroughs to take your lifestyle practice to the next level or to finally have one for the very first time.<\/p>\n<p>As I always say, Dentistry is a Vehicle capable of taking you anywhere you want to go.\u00a0\u00a0Most Doctors ruin their opportunity to have an even more limitless lifestyle and achieving financial independence much faster simply because they don\u2019t know any better.<\/p>\n<p>It is not just about the money you make.\u00a0\u00a0It\u2019s about how you make it (pillars two, three and four), it\u2019s about the path you use to get there (pillar one) and it\u2019s about the methodical structure you have put in place to make certain \u2018success\u2019 by your own definition is your reality (pillar five).<\/p>\n<p>Profit is planned.\u00a0\u00a0Don\u2019t let anyone ever tell you differently.<\/p>\n<p>And I\u2019m going to show you how.\u00a0\u00a0Together, we\u2019ll put a final action plan in place for Your Lifestyle Practice next week\u2026<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/lifestyledentalpractice.com\/\"><strong>Reserve Your Seat and Create Your Lifestyle Practice Manifesto
