The world is replete with self-help books and people who tell us how to be successful. Many books offer advice like you become what you think about and set big goals and amazing things will happen. Pretty vague, right? What we really need is to choose activities that focus on what matters, and that actually lead to a tangible outcome or ability to prognosticate success. During my career, which has spanned nearly two decades, I’ve always looked for what will make the biggest difference. It’s not about taking the easy path or the hard path; it’s focusing on choosing the right path for the right reasons. We can control the habits we develop I choose good habits that help move my career forward—which has led me to where I am today. My professional role has evolved several times over the years, from starting as a pure clinician to becoming a clinician, a leader, and a single practice owner, then transitioning to serving as a clinician, mentor, team leader, lecturer, consultant and a large group dental practice owner. Mentoring dentists who join my group, or who attend my courses, has become one of my most cherished roles. I now have the opportunity to help other doctors, especially new doctors, set themselves on a pathway of exponential growth and work/life success.
