It’s Not What You Are Born With, It’s What You Have in You to Be!
If you want to reach your personal business best whether that’s 100 patient visits a day or 100 patient visits a week, you need to let go of the “myths of success” that most management systems perpetuate and embrace evidence-based management.
The preponderance of psychological evidence indicates that experts are made, not born. Successful Chiropractic Entrepreneurs are experts in three key areas:
- Clinical expertise
- Leadership charisma
- Managerial acumen
Decades of research by University of Florida’s Andres Ericsson proves that exceptional performance doesn’t happen overnight, nor is it determined by innate talent. Here are the cliff notes:
- Ten year rule
It takes approximately 10 years of daily, deliberate practice, about four hours a day, to become an expert. - Training trumps talent.
Experts train effectively and efficiently and have direct access to the best techniques through coaching, skilled peers, books and seminars. They never miss an opportunity to train. - Relentless pursuit for excellence
Once achieved, exceptional performance can’t be maintained without continued effort. - More effort, not more success
Exceptional performers do not have a higher success rate, they simply do more. - Effortful study
Challenging yourself beyond your present competencies makes room for growth. Jim Collins says, “Comfort and complacency are the enemies of greatness.” - Successful people don’t have hot streaks.
The period when they produce the most successes are also the times when they produce the most failures. - A higher source of motivation
Experts are intrinsically motivated to be the best they can be. They are not motivated by fear of failure or by greed.
I can only imagine how incredible it will be for you when the person you are today meets the person you are destined to be!
Remember, it’s not what you are born with, it’s what you have in you to become!
