7 Habits Of Successful Dentist | Great People Do Things Differently

We watch many motivational videos but our energy or motivational level ends after a time. And then we start doing as we are used to. People are mostly compelled by their habit and work accordingly. No matter how much anyone makes us understand. Actually we are all like this and it is very difficult for us to change our habit but this is also true that these habits decide our future.

And our today’s topic is HABIT. Today we will come to know which habits should be there in us.

Today, we will see which effective habits should be there in a successful dentist.

When I talk to my friend Anuj, he tells me how his work is being affected because of an unethical dentist. He tells me that DCI is opening colleges by taking money and dentists are dying hungrily. He can make me understand for hours that due to oversaturation in dentistry, today dentist cannot live a good life-style.

And most of us react like my friend Anuj, because we are reactive person.

They put their concentration on those things which they cannot control. According to that they face problems due to others.

But being in this situation the proactive dentists do not focus on these things because they cannot control these. That why they focus on how they can satisfy their patients, how they can do marketing and how they should invest their money.

Do you know how much hard work you will have to do, how much time you will have to give and how much anxious you will feel if you will ask these questions from yourself. And what our mind will chose in default situation – to give more efforts or to complain by giving less efforts. That’s why more of us chose to complain about those things that we cannot do.

So, our first habit is BECOME PROACTIVE.

Imagine that you go to a hospital and you see a dead body there. But after seeing that dead body you feel like you are laid on the stretches. And now you want to hear that what people are saying about you. And this is a type of question whose answer you had never thought of.

Now tell me that your daily activities are taking you to the answer. Do you want to listen that you were a good husband/wife. If yes then spending more time at the clinic and fighting with your spouse affects your goal.

Do you want to listen that you were a good human being and did many works for the society?

So, does your daily activity taking you to that way, do you work for anyone in the society, have you changed someone’s life.

Do you want to listen that you were a famous dentist?

Do you improve your skills? Do you constantly work for the satisfaction of the patients?

So, basically you have to ask yourself that your daily activities are taking you towards your goal or not.

So, our second habit is BEGIN WITH END IN MIND.

If I ask you that what is the most important thing for you then more chances of your answer will be that to remain healthy and live happily with family. You will never tell me that to see face book feed, TV or doing time pass is the important thing for you.

But most of us do these things only. If we have empty time we like to scroll the face book feed and neither go to the gym for workout nor spend time with family.

Now, our third habit is PUT FIRST THING FIRST.

 Imagine that you and me run dental clinics and the clinic of both of us works ok – ok and we both give a lot of efforts in increasing OPD.

One day, I saw the pamphlet of your clinic and I liked it. I decide to meet you. When we meet I shared my marketing incidents with you that how much profit and loss I am getting.

After seeing my honesty you also told me that you had print the pamphlet and how much useful it was to you.

When we start doing marketing together, we both apply our mind and a new idea is created. Higher quantity makes things cheaper. Hearing each other’s mistake, we avoid doing the same mistakes again.

But this does not happen in actual scenario. If we get profit in something we don’t share it. And we make jokes by putting pamphlet on face book. But from this you will not get much benefit.

So, there is a very big gap between what we say and what we do.

 

Now, our fourth habit is SEEK FIRST TO UNDERSTAND THEN TO BE UNDERSTOOD.

 Actual life is not like a ludo game that if one has to win the other has to lose.

One thing which I want to from you is to like and subscribe to my video. I will not say that I had put a lot of efforts on it, spend many hours or the editing of this video was very tough.

Because who cares how much hours I had spend on it or how much hard work I had done.

The most important question is this video is useful to you or not. Why will you spend your time on subscribing? Just like this if any patient comes to you with pain, he does not want to buy RCT from you. He will not care that this is his wisdom tooth and you will have to give your more efforts. He just wants to end his pain.

So, the fifth habit is THINK WIN-WIN.

 Imagine that mangoes are on a tree and you want to eat mangoes but your height is small and you cannot reach the mangoes. You see a man on the other side trying to pluck mangoes but his hands also can’t reach to the mangoes.

Together you decide to pluck the mangoes. You will take mangoes by climbing on the back of man and then divide it among yourself. And this is called synergy.

Just like this you can tie up with other business near your clinic.

He will give your coupon to his customer and you will give his coupon to your customer.

According to the example of mangoes, if you wouldn’t have tied up with other man you do not get one mango also.

You have to create synergistic opportunity. The more you tie-up, the more you will get successful.

Our sixth habit is SYNERGISE.

One day you see that a man is cutting tree outside your home. He is doing it continuously from an hour or two. After seeing this you go to him and advise him to sharpen his tools.

But that man says you that more time and money will have to be spend on sharpening the tools. Maybe you will laugh after listening to this answer but we also do the same thing daily.

We spend our time on the same type of problem daily at our clinic like mismanagement, dislodge crown & cement but we do not learn anything new to correct them.

Two days management course can save your daily hours.

So, the last tip is SHARPEN YOUR SKILLS.

It is very important that the skills which you have should be sharpening daily by revising something new on daily basis.

Thank you…
