I think one of the big problems that we have as dentists is that our purpose in life is to be the best dentist in the world. Our purpose in life is to be a dentist. That is our problem. And that’s why so many of us suffer. Because when you align your purpose in life with something that is bound to fail there’s going to be an open contact or open margin, that your entire self-worth drops with that.- Dr. Kyle Stanley

Overcoming Scheduling Challenges, Micrometrics Utilization, and the Distinction Between DSOs and Private Dentists 0

Tweetable:

Be a person of value, I think there’s an over-obsession with an intrinsic ‘look at yourself, like ‘How can I be fulfilled?’, ‘How can I be happy?’. And when you look inside for fulfillment or happiness, you’re going to ruin the possibility of achieving it. So, it is how you become more valuable like you get what you want in life by helping other people get what they want. – Dr. Craig Spodak
