In this essential episode of Dental Unscripted, co-hosts Michael Dinsio and Paula Quinn dive into a highly relevant topic for every dental practice owner: the scarcity mindset versus the abundant mindset.
They break down how a scarcity mindset (a constant feeling of “not enough” resources, time, or money) can cripple you as a business owner and a person. This mindset often leads to short-term decisions focused on survival rather than long-term growth. Paula shares her personal experience of living in scarcity while running her own practice, sacrificing growth by trying to do all the roles herself.
Learn how to shift to an abundant mindset, which is focused on possibility, trust in growth, and long-term thinking. Michael and Paula discuss:
- The Impact of Scarcity: How fear of loss affects critical decisions, from hiring employees to joining insurance networks.
- The Role of Strategy and Metrics: The importance of basing big decisions on metrics and proper ROI rather than just “gut feeling” to enable confident leaps of faith.
- Leadership and Language: Why the dentist must be the leader and visionary of the practice, using positive, abundant language that inspires the team instead of projecting fear and negativity.
- Bet on Yourself: A powerful reminder that the patient pool is big enough and that no one is better to bet on than yourself to lead your practice to exponential growth.
Stop treading water and start focusing on growth! Get the unscripted truth on why a change in mindset is the first step toward building the dental practice and legacy you’ve always wanted.
