Team Huddle Motivation for the Week

"Doing what needs to be done may not make you happy, but it will make you great."

In practice: Part of the responsibility of being an owner of a business, a parent, or a care giver, is to do the things in life which need to be done.

Here's to doing what needs to be done!

Team Huddle Motivation for the Week

"Everything you want in your life rests beyond your comfort zone. If it were comfortable, you would already have it."

In practice: Most of us reach to the end of our comfort zone, to try and grasp the things we want to add to our lives. Whether it is managing the team, refining the practice, or growth needed in the practice. All require us to stretch beyond our current comfort zone.

So, welcome the stretch!

Your Team Huddle for February 17

"One of the greatest theories known to man is the theory of compounding..." Albert Einstein

In practice: the theory of compounding which most positively impacts your practice life: compounding you and your team's experience and education through time.

Like compounding interest, the appreciation of your team's value shall increase over time. Impacts upon your financial life: start saving as early as possible in your career, and allow the theory of compounding interest to work and grow in your favor. When you wait a year, you lose the last year of your compounding accumulation, not the amount you postponed in saving...

So, start compounding now!

Your motivational team huddle for February 23rd

mdcteamhuddle1.jpg

"Most of us will not move until the discomfort of our current position is greater than the discomfort of change."

In practice: Welcome the shift, the stretch, the reach beyond your comfort. Too often we focus on being comfortable, rather than being our best. Strive toward your best; your patients, your family and all those around you deserve your very best.

So, start stretching and growing!
