Simply by planning and being strategic in your dental practice you can relieve stress, while making you more productive. Do you ever find yourself, in the evening as you’re reflecting on your day, thinking that all you did all day long was put out fires?  Unfortunately I think this happens to many of us more often than it ever should.  With some planning and a new mindset, here’s a new strategy that allows you to be more productive and less stressful because you aren’t dealing with so many ‘emergencies’ all day long. While Steven Covey, author and business guru, is credited for this plan of attack I’m about to explain, it was actually developed by Dwight Eisenhower.  This method, called the Eisenhower Matrix, is how he ran his military career…

The value of consistently posting to your dental practice Facebook page can hold in your practice.

Being prepared for disaster ensures your dental practice's success. Like many of the topics I like to share with you this one came from a personal experience that is always on our minds here in Oklahoma.  The place I have unapologetically decided to lay my family roots down is smack in the middle of tornado alley, and when you live in an area that has a nickname about our weather, it’s safe to say we have our fair share of storms.  And while I know we aren’t the only area with crazy weather, we do know the value of being prepared. To help our kids feel more prepared and empowered during natural disasters the Red Cross recently came into our schools and presented the Pillow Case project.  They gave each…
