Running a medical practice is as hard as it has ever been. How do you decide when to buckle down and grit your way through a project? When do you decide to quit the project and spend your time improving the practice in a different way? Join an interactive conversation on when to buckle down and when to cut your losses. Books such as Angela Duckworth’s Grit and Ryan Holiday’s The Obstacle is the Way will drive our discussion about perseverance and tenacity. Grit and hard work are terrific when you are working on the right project. Annie Duke’s book Quit will help us define the right project and distinguish between when to stick with it and when to start something better. The sooner we decide that it is time to walk away, the sooner we can devote time, energy and resources in a different direction. Defining quitting criteria going into project can help us from staying committed for too long. Gritting it out on the right project leads to profound success. Perspective, action and will can turn trials into triumph. Hear examples from peers who can relate to specific challenges in your practice and give you confidence to persevere. Risks of escalating commitment and sunk costs lead to staying with projects too long. Learn from peers who can share stories about waiting too long to change course. This session will give you tools to frame and make better decisions in your practice.
Learning Objectives:
Outline ways to build grit and perseverance in your practice
Analyze decisions to quit projects before investing too much
Examine examples from peers in both situations to drive better decision making in your team
