Show Notes

We all start out working five or six days a week, but the end goal of every business owner should be to work as little as possible without losing business efficiency. Making yourself be more replaceable means you have more time to work on yourself and the business. This is why I am following a 3-day workweek schedule, as it lets me be more productive in projects that not only will improve my business, but also my skills and knowledge as a dentist.

 

Today, I am interviewed by my friends at the Dental Practice Heroes Podcast on how you can structure a 3-day clinical work week. I share my weekly routine and how strict I am with my schedule. I explain how you can reverse engineer your end goals, especially when it comes to your finances. I also discuss some of the struggles we encounter in our business and an important lesson I learned from my dad after a disappointing experience with a business partner.
