There is no path where you can have both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Which is exactly why I have put together a\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dentalsuccesstoday.com\/90-day-dash\/\">New Year Series of Training and Resources<\/a><\/strong> that focus exclusively on how to achieve the most profitable year of your career while being able to work less and increase in your own personal autonomy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dentalsuccesstoday.com\/90-day-dash\/\">Create Your Blueprint To Greater Practice Profits &amp; Lifestyle Balance\u2026<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Actually, it\u2019s just the opposite.&nbsp;&nbsp;When your practice has been designed properly, you can realize greater profits with fewer hours by focusing on the right patients, procedures, and scheduling protocols.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That is why my Reverse Engineering Formula for figuring out what your Practice Growth Dynamics should be is so incredibly important.&nbsp;&nbsp;Once you get to a certain level of success in dentistry these are the only things you need and really the only things you can use to achieve greater growth and find your next levels of breakthrough success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The basic concept is very easy\u2026 the more people who want in, the less time there is to give them, the more you can dictate what\u2019s put in your schedule, the more control you have over collections\u2026 without increasing overhead to produce greater profit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, the reality of every private practice owner is that you can absolutely determine your own income all the way down to your actual hourly wage all based around how you engineer your practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And this is the exact activity you should have already done or start doing right now before 2022 gets too far ahead of you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The doctors that make the most money don\u2019t do it on accident.&nbsp;&nbsp;The practices that have the greatest profit aren\u2019t making it happen without a plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the final day of 2021, I want to give you the top three things you can commit to make your best year ever by your own definition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First, increase autonomy by taking more control over everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Predetermine what you want your income to be.&nbsp;&nbsp;Know your overhead and then stack on top your income and work backwards from that number to your hourly run rate you must achieve.&nbsp;&nbsp;Then strategize to create the dentistry that allows you to produce at that level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Second, stop allowing anyone or anything else to tell you what you can or can\u2019t do.&nbsp;&nbsp;You get to decide what you want and how you want things to go.&nbsp;&nbsp;How you want your practice to run and how you want your life to look.&nbsp;&nbsp;Most doctors don\u2019t fight hard enough for their preferences until it\u2019s too late.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Third, and this is vitally important, choose to live and practice guilt free.&nbsp;&nbsp;Be proud of the business that you have built and invested in that affords you the ability and opportunity to do it on your own terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The bottom line is you can make money a lot of different ways \u2013 in dentistry \u2013 and you can either let it be random or you can make it strategic.&nbsp;&nbsp;You get to decide what will define your practice in the new year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have organized for you in one place the most comprehensive and strategic approach to practice profitability.\u00a0\u00a0I am providing you\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dentalsuccesstoday.com\/90-day-dash\/\">9 free gifts for a fast start to your New Year<\/a><\/strong>.\u00a0\u00a0You don\u2019t want to miss it.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dentalsuccesstoday.com\/90-day-dash\/\">Start Your 90-Day Dash to Practice Prosperity&#8230;<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s your challenge for 2022.&nbsp;&nbsp;Make this year a year of your own design.&nbsp;&nbsp;You make the profit and all other things possible so make this year a success by your own definition, on your own terms, in your own way!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Have a Happy New Year.&nbsp;&nbsp;Then one day, one decision, one action at a time \u2013 make it your best year!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What better way to finish this year than talking about how your practice can deliver you incredible autonomy for your life.&nbsp;&nbsp;
