For 500 off and free shipping on Surgically Clean Air units,  email jon@surgicallycleanair.com and let him know that you heard about it on the Dental Practice Heroes Podcast.  Offer is good until May 1st 2020. What is compassion? The concern for the suffering of others.In our patients.  It might be compassion for their fear,  their finances, or their values or lack their of.  We have to give them a pass and just know that we can’t possibly know everything that went into the way they are.  We need to accept them for who they are. What is Self compassion?We learn survival mechanisms as children that we have to measure up to a certain behavior to be loved.  And we get punished to make us better.We take that into adult hood.    It shows up as a voice making us better.  It is our self Critic voice that makes us think we are doing it too make ourselves better.Perfectionism is actually insecurity and these voices showing up in adulthood.  This critic voice shows up as our mental coach.  If we allowed a friend to be as critical of us as we are of ourselves, we would have gotten rid of that friend a long time ago.How to fix:  Be aware of the voice.  Also, we need to realize there is nothing to fix, because there is absolutely nothing wrong with us.  If we want to love others, we have to first love ourselves.This doesn’t mean to give up on your goals and be complacent.  It means to silence that voice that says you don’t measure up.  Work towards to your goal from love, and not from your self hate.Failure is part of the process,  it doesn’t mean you are unsuccessful or bad.We are not here to become an acceptable person, we are here to accept ourselves as we are. We are already all good! ----------------------------------If you are ready to take your practice to the next level, Dental Business Training by Dr. Paul Etchison can be found at Dental Business Mentor.For more Dental Business ContentCheck out www.DentalPracticeHeroes.comSubscribeYou can subscribe to the Dental Practice Heroes Podcast on  Itunes,   Stitcher, Spotify, Podcast Addict,  Google Podcasts,  Overcast, and Pocket Casts Get Free DPH Trainings,  Download the App and Join our Community!  CLICK HERETake Control of Your Practice and Your Life We help dentists take more time off while making more money through systematization, team empowerment, and creating leadership teams.
