Invest in Your Business
“Invest in yourself. Your career is the engine of your wealth.”--Paul Clitheroe
What does it mean to invest in your business/career? To me, it starts with choosing what to do with your life. If you decide to do something just to make money, more times than not, you will be unsuccessful. I believe you will be the most fruitful if you earn money doing something you love.
My patients often ask, “Doc, how could you like to work on teeth?" Dentistry can be quite challenging at times, but it's not necessarily the teeth part that I love. I love the satisfaction I get when I help somebody with a problem. I love being able to employ people and push them to be their best. The best compliment I can receive is that my staff is so friendly. (Of course, it is still nice to hear people say that they are happy with my dental work.)
Investing in my business is all about my vision of having a practice that offers our patients top notch, efficient customer service and dental work or advice that is of the highest integrity and standard of care. This vision is always in the forefront of every business decision I make. Oftentimes, businesses or careers fail because the owner doesn’t have a clear vision. Operating without a vision is like driving your family in a car for a vacation but you have no idea where you are going. How will you ever get there if you don’t know where you want to be! My advice is to invest time in thinking of where you want to be--it will help guide you each and every day.
As always, please ask your financial consultant before making any investment decision. These blogs are my thoughts and personal advice only.
