If you're like most practice owners, you started your practice to celebrate your freedom... whether that is freedom of time, financial freedom, freedom of lifestyle choice or the freedom to choose who you serve and work with in terms of your client base, your team members and the charities you support.

Our goal is straightforward... to help you ethically sustain a practice that exceeds your wildest dreams, without forfeiting your freedom and values.

With so much talk about the current state of the economy, several practice owners are experiencing one or more of the following... anxiety, confusion, doubt, loss of confidence and with it, loss of faith in their practice... 

But, there are also many others that are rejecting the recession and making things work - not just surviving, but thriving.

How is that possible?

Those practice owners who are currently making great things happen understand that thriving through today's turbulent economy and beyond it requires doing business differently because the marketplace conditions have changed.  It's not about working harder, it's about working smarter and working differently...

The next eighteen months are critical, as they may well determine the life span of your practice and also your personal financial health for the rest of your life. 

It's time for change - time to spot and seize the opportunities buried in the chaos, time for bigger thinking and greater results, and time to triumph over the recession because you owe it to your future, to the future of your practice, and to the future of your dependants. 

Let's start with the basics...

The measure of your success (and that of your small professional practice), will always be determined by certain fundamental factors that never change.  And, especially in this economic downturn, the importance of applying those factors correctly is heightened. 

Those underlying factors are as follows: 

#1.  Having the right System - Unless you systematically implement proven methods that continuously and simultaneously attract more new clients, sell more to your existing client base and keep your clients coming back frequently, your practice will be short-lived.  Those methods must be in alignment with how your clients are making buying decisions in today's economic climate.

#2. Having the right Mindset - In order to grow your practice, you must grow yourself first.  Emotional challenges that are not solved, will ultimately lead to business problems.  So, you must get rid of any excuses, fears, limiting beliefs, negative thoughts and actions that may be holding you back, particularly as you rise above the current economy.  Additionally, the way you respond to any challenges that may show up in the journey to your next level will affect your outcome.

#3. Having the right Support - Having the right influence and taking the right advice is imperative.  No one that has made quantum leaps in business and life has done it alone.  It requires having the right mentors, coaches, role models, and surrounding yourself with the right network.  It also requires being in a supportive environment with like-minded people that you can journey to the next level with, reach out to, and that want you to excel.  You must therefore stay away from the naysayers, worriers and spectators who have chosen to focus on the economic crisis, and instead, surround yourself with individuals who understand that this too shall pass, because tough situations don't last, tough people do!   

#4. Having the right Accountability - When you're your own boss, following through on certain things requires discipline.  It's therefore essential to have a knowledgeable, yet not directly involved peer group or advisory board (whether formal or informal), that will hold you accountable to achieving more than you ever would on your own... people you can brainstorm, strategize and share ideas with, get feedback from and create opportunities with, especially as you commit to overcoming this recession.

Why do several practice owners still get mediocre results at best, even after somewhat applying all of this?

Many practice owners attend training events and walk away feeling 'fired up' and unstoppable.  Then as time goes by, they find it difficult to maintain that momentum or to implement what they've learned.  Most practice owners also lose traction when it comes to managing project details...

These things happen primarily because on its own, training, is not enough to help you meet your business objectives and personal goals.  One-time webinars, home-study courses and workshops are great for getting the necessary and vital information, but are not enough to keep you motivated or foster accountability, and won't provide ongoing advice and inspiration, or continuous brainstorming and strategizing sessions. 

Also, some practice owners stick to just hiring a coach.  While you can create a lot with a coach, you can create even more when you tap into the synergy and collaboration that you can only get in a group or community environment as you tap into the ideas, expertise and background of an energized group of talented people, as opposed to working at it alone or solely with your coach...

And that's where we come in!

The recession is not here to stay, it will turn around.  But, in the meantime, will you be in the category of those who will utilize the present to prosper in the future, or will you join the worriers and pessimists who focus on failure?
