It comes at you fast.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The New Year.<\/strong> Like a fast train, you know it\u2019s coming, and suddenly, it is already whizzing past you.<\/p>\n

Actually, each year it comes by faster<\/strong>.\u00a0 You may not have yet fully had a chance to finish all of last year\u2019s work, or set your chiropractic goals for the New Year.\u00a0 But nothing slows down the advance of this New Year – and before you know it, it will be spring.<\/p>\n

And come summer and fall<\/strong>, what will you have changed in your practice? Probably not as much you would have hoped for.\u00a0 Why? Because change is coming at you so fast it\u2019s almost too much to keep up.<\/span><\/p>\n

And it’s not just you that is experiencing change<\/strong> – our whole world is changing. Faster and faster.\u00a0 The political noise and tumult we hear constantly are just the symptoms of the conventions of the old grating up against the realities of the new.
\n<\/a>
\nRay Kurzweil, whose predictions have been mostly correct over the last 20 years or so<\/strong>, predicts that by 2045 we will have computers that will be able to teach themselves so fast that the speed in which they learn will reach infinity.\u00a0 This is a very rough description of the Singularity he describes in his book. (The Singularity Is Near: When Humans Transcend Biology)<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 “An analysis of the history of technology shows that technological change is exponential…\u00a0 There’s even exponential growth in the rate of exponential growth…\u00a0 The twenty-first century will see almost a thousand times greater technological change than its predecessor…” \u00a0 \u00a0 – Ray Kurzweil<\/em>\"Singularity\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

In other words, change is changing exponential<\/strong>ly.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This New Year of change is faster than ever before.\u00a0<\/strong> But if we move way out beyond all the hue and cry of chiropractic philosophy, \u201cevidence based\u201d chiropractic, \u201cinjectables\u201d, politics in and out of the profession, the rah-rah and rock and roll, there is a quiet universe waiting of healing and success which we may only get glimpses of.<\/p>\n

In my opinion (IMHO) \u2026 it is a world which you<\/strong>, the chiropractor, have always been in. It is not a matter of reaching your goal as a healer. You are already there. Science in fact is catching up to what\u00a0 D.D. Palmer talked about as the 19th Century rolled naively into the 20th.\u00a0 Bruce Lipton, a professor in biology who once taught medical students at a medical school here in Wisconsin, after his research and similar epiphany, now teaches chiropractors at a chiropractic college.\u00a0 He gave a wonderful presentation at Life West Presentation in San Francisco in 2012. I was there and heard him. (Spontaneous Evolution<\/span> by Bruce Lipton)<\/p>\n

But the truth is, you, as a chiropractor, are already there.<\/strong> You have already ridden the wave and, to some degree, are on the other side of the Singularly.\u00a0 You may not\u00a0 fully realize this, the full power and truth of your profession, and I certainly don\u2019t pretend to.\u00a0 Well, maybe you do since you are reading this, but probably most doc\u2019s don\u2019t fully appreciate what they have with chiropractic.\u00a0\u00a0 But the Innate power defined and used by chiropractors is there. How else do you think it has been able to survive and persist over these 120 years through the teeth of vested interests and vicious and covert attacks \u2013 that still persist? (see Doctored, the Movie<\/span>.<\/a>) It is certainly not because of the great skill and effectiveness of your national or state organizations (not to discount the good work they have done here and there.)<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>And this brings me to the point of this article: you have got to upgrade the architecture and skills of the management of your office<\/b>. \u00a0So, while the healing aspect of your profession is, and has been, way ahead of the times, in many cases your management is not. \u00a0Military control of your staff, robotic scripts, referral gimmicks and other relics from the 60\u2019s and 80\u2019s have no place in the future.\u00a0 Dr. Noope left the building a long time ago.\u00a0 (Who remembers him?)<\/p>\n

For you to succeed, your management and marketing has to be way ahead of the curve. <\/b>The world is changing so fast that if you are not keeping up, patients will look for chiropractic offices that are.\u00a0 It is that simple: lead from the future, or perish as an amalgamation of P.T., massage, and G.N.C.<\/p>\n

It is now 2013 and by now you may have<\/b>, or should have set some chiropractic goals for 2013.\u00a0\u00a0 The challenge now is getting there. This is also our challenge as Petty Michel & Associates consultants and coaches as well.<\/p>\n

This year, our goal is to get you to your goals FASTER.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Faster to the future and faster to your goals. <\/strong>It is a challenge, but we have been developing newer and faster approaches that can help you (and your team) get more done quicker.<\/p>\n

We want to help you get to tomorrow\u2019s goals \u2013 faster<\/strong> and once there, help you stay there and enjoy the ride.\u00a0 “Get There Faster and Stay There Happier.”\u00a0<\/span> Yep, them’s our goals!<\/p>\n

As the world speeds up and changes faster each day<\/strong>, we can whine about how we are being left behind, stoically assert our principles and pretend everything is just the same, or embrace the changes and in fact drive them forward ourselves.<\/p>\n

On February 1st we will be announcing new management technologies to get you to your goals\u00a0 faster and funner.\u00a0 Or Funnier.<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

In either case, please stay tuned.<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
