and a Fabulous Week! Now we're getting into some of the meaty stuff in (rehab) Pain Management! I had the week off! ALL last week... and it was AWESOME! I got so much done!
1) I have been working on drawing (actually commissioning artists) to do some artwork in order to create more posters. I think you're going to love them! 2) I did a day of filming! For an exercise presciption software program (or two). Which do folks think is best
- an online platform where you can e-mail pics & videos & print a sheet, OR an 'app' where clients can login to find their exercises and check that they've been done? Your thoughts? 3) I went to a Business Course. It was so inspiring, and inspires this week's blog. 4) I was able to go to my youngest son's football game on Saturday again. I was wrong last week, this was the quarter finals - and they WON again! I was so proud of Cole, he played
defensive end, full back (offence), and special teams. He had a great game! I won't make next week's game - it's 4 hours from home and I work until noon. Argh! 5) And the oldest son came home for a visit (actually he came home for free food, a free haircut - yes, I cut hair - and to do his laundry), and it was great seeing the boys together.
So my goal is to schedule a couple extra days off every month! It really helps me in my enjoyment of
life and with my creativity and ability to tackle major projects!
Anyhoo... enough about me, here's your learning for this week!

Blog: Top THREE business building strategies!
|
This week I had the wonderful opportunity to attend a business workshop – Business Freedom Blueprint by Paul Wright. Paul’s a physiotherapist-entrepreneur. He owned several clinics, figured out the formula to success. Sold them all and then went into business education.
It was a great workshop filled with physiotherapy clinic owners, practitioners, and some chiropractors. Paul took us through 6
areas that lead to success and 9 action items to implement.
In this blog, I want to cover my favourite 3 ‘a-ha’ items from the talk:
