134: Dentistry is Dead?

Dr. Russell Kirk
About this episode

In the face of this present pandemic, do you think dentistry is dead?

 

There are some posts going around on social media saying that dentistry is dead. And I fully understand how this pandemic may be causing a lot of mental turmoil because of the uncertainty it brings to our practice and our business – but nobody knows anything at this point. 

 

Even our government is still trying to figure things out.

 

We can't just bash our profession. It's easy to digress to this negative mindset. But it won't play well for any of us. 

 

It’s a matter of choosing what kind of mindset we’re going to have at this point in time.

 

We don't know if things are going back to the way we were before and this is something we don’t have control over. But what we can control, however, is our mindset. 

 

We all have to intentionally come from a mindset of abundance, not scarcity. 

 

You have to plan accordingly and ramp up your game. How are you going to approach this to be prepared to kick the doors back open and go after this and get back to where you were at, pre-pandemic?

 

So instead of spending some of your downtime consuming negative things, let's go get ready and prioritize ahead. So we can make sure our business is stronger than what they were pre-pandemic.



In this episode, you’ll hear:

  • The right mindset in the face of this pandemic
  • Things to think about while we’re preparing for when things begin to kick-off
  • Basic prioritization and goal settings
  • Possible changes to expect in the future
