A calling will exhaust you - in a good way.

When you take new actions towards your Ideal Job, you must release your old definition of Failure.
Einstein's Insanity Trap shows the only way to get new results is to take new actions. To increase your practice satisfaction, you must take new actions at work and at home. You have to do things you have never done before.
What if things don't work out as you planned? What if you try something new and don't get the result you expected?
Was that attempt a failure?
Not even a little bit!!
What you did was conduct an experiment. You gathered some data in response to your new action and put yourself in the position to have a learning experience.
You can fail in this quest for your Ideal Practice, most doctors do. This failure is one of the causes of the current 63% burnout rate.
However, when you are building a more Ideal Practice, it is impossible to fail by taking new actions.
Let's redefine failure and get started on Your Ideal Practice in this final lesson in our Take Back Your Practice series

READ MORE NOW >>>If your conscious mind is asking, "Is this what burnout feels like?" Your Little Voice already has the answer.
One of the things physicians ask me on our coaching Discovery Call is whether or not I think they are burned out.
They want a second opinion from a fellow doctor. That's a natural instinct and yet, my opinion is completely irrelevant in the arc of their life as a physician. The choice to change and grow has nothing to do with me or what I think or feel.
What matters is how YOU feel.
It's all about feelings. Burnout is not a rational process. It is not about ratings or scales or scores or someone else's opinion. Burnout is something you FEEL. Burnout is something your rational mind is always trying to talk you out of.
