2007: Lessons Learned
Wow!
What a fantastic session. What fantastic clients.
What an incredible opportunity to learn, grow and
change. The feedback we are receiving about the Miami
Superconference is nothing short of spectacular. I am proud to say that
it lived up to it's promise - as a terrific opportunity
to interact with peers and experts, develop new ways
of thinking about what success means, and to share
new ideas about creating a dream practice and life.
I was thrilled to meet with members from around the
country, and excited about the dynamic that existed
throughout the conference as people were open to new
ideas and opportunities, and ready and willing to
make changes that would propel them toward success,
happiness and personal fulfillment.
Our
guests speakers and vendors shared a great deal of
valuable information with us. The feedback we
received from our attendees indicated that they thought
the presentations were extremely valuable, and that
next year they want even more - more guest speakers,
more vendors, more opportunities to grow and embrace
change - and we plan to accommodate your wishes, creating
an even better conference next year. I personally
embraced the opportunity to learn, because my members
never fail to teach me something.
Here was the biggest lesson I learned: Practicing
DCs almost universally need to learn to become Commanders
of Change ™.
They must be unafraid
to eject what is not working. They must set life up
on their own terms. They must do the right thing,
regardless of external pressures to compromise, and
even if it will take extensive work. Unsuccessful
people are universally unwilling to do the work needed
to take effective steps for change, and yet personal
growth is all about change. It’s about letting go
of past ideas. It’s about finding new pathways, and
fine-tuning for maximum results. Constant learning
and upgrades. New skill sets.
This will be our focus at Superconference 2008, where
we will build upon the successful platform for change
and growth we have established, making the conference
even bigger and better than before. (You can learn
more about next year's Superconference, which will
be held October 31 - November 2, 2008, in Marina Del
Ray, California, here.)
In the meantime, you can learn more about the changes
needed to expand your practice and your life by listening
to the free 45-minute seminar we conducted earlier
this week. Get it here at: http://instantTeleseminar.com/?eventid=996123
Attaining phenomenal results, and the life and practice
of your dreams requires introspection, work, and good
coaching when you are stuck or unsure about what to
do next.
I look forward to helping you grow your practice,
and your life too! Thanks for a wonderful weekend
in Miami and here's to a continued growth and success
throughout the rest of the year and in 2008!

| The
Marathon Called Practice
Training for and running a successful professional
practice is a lot like training for and running a
marathon. As someone with experience running marathons,
I feel confident telling you the most critical part
of success happens long before the race ever begins.
The training program is the most critical part. If
you train correctly, the race itself is almost an
afterthought.
Would
you stop training for a marathon after running around
the block a few times? No - it would be
folly! In a similar vein, you cannot stop your professional training after
completion of your initial medical training. You need to set up a continuing,
effective "training program" in order to
ensure that you are successful in your life and practice.
By practicing in this way, we minimize surprises,
develop resilience, and prove to ourselves we can
accomplish much, much more than we may have ever thought
possible.
To set up an effective training program, you must
plan ahead. Select your "race" about 4-6
months ahead of time. If you’re not in great shape
it should be 1-3 years out!
Get out a calendar, and work backwards from the goal.
(Remember, this is the same approach I cover in “The
End in Mind” Core Module). Only by working backwards
do we give ourselves enough time to allow latitude
for unforeseen obstacles.
Don’t forget to think about your goal in detail!
The more details the better. This also forms the foundation
for your daily meditation and written visualization,
which all great athletes and performers do. When do
you train? How long, and how far? When do you rest?
What other things are critical (for example nutrition
and hydration)? When do you really ramp things up?
How many miles do you put on your gear before adjusting
or renewing it, especially basics like great shoes
or your Perfect Practice Platform, the basis of your
entire professional life.
You must be prepared to get bruised, and scraped
up with minimal consequences. You get the best tools
you can afford. Use great “orthotics” to fine tune
your stride if need be. Get the assistance of a great
training coach, with real world experience. Take advantage
of your coach's wealth of expertise. Don't ignore
the benefits of working closely with someone who has
done what you are trying to accomplish!
Benchmark yourself. Even if you don’t finish the
race like you wanted to this time, what have you learned?
What do you leave in or drop from your next training
schedule?
Just by doing this bit of planning, you will be way
ahead of where you were, and you will feel great about
what you learn and accomplish. And you are pumped,
because now you know - with a little more refinement,
you are ready to plan for your next Personal Record.
