Closing Thought of the Week: RELAX! - E8

As practice owners we have ingrained in our minds: the harder we work, the more successful we will be. Tell me I’m wrong. Furthermore, this is not unique to Optometrists. Look at the number of professionals burning out. They grind and grind with no tangible end in sight. This is not healthy, nor is it the best way to maximize performance.

Whether you are working out, learning a new skill, or running an office you cannot overlook the importance of rest and recovery. When you lay in bed at night, can you shut off your work mind and relax and be present in the moment? Me either! I am, however; aware that this is a problem and am working hard to fix it. Have You ever wondered why your best ideas come when you are in the shower or on the ride home? You shut off your brain and tap into your unconscious mind. This is where all your inspiration and creative, fulfilling ideas are hiding.

Learn to manage the grind and RELAX, I am right there with you my friends.

Have a great weekend!
