Had a great week
I finished my travel for the week last night and I’m truly exhausted physically – but it has been a great week – Workshops in Leeds, Birmingham and Exeter and a practice visit and team session in Birmingham also. I’ve been focused on business planning and customer service in the delivery this week and its [...]
A great day in Birmingham
What a fantastic practice visit yesterday. I’ll keep the identity of the client confidential but I have rarely enjoyed meeting a new principal and his team so much. The owner has single-handedly built a 2m pound dental practice, forged with his own hard work, his vision, his sheer determination and the creation of an excellent [...]
Its easy being a million dollar coach
My alarm woke me at 5.30am this morning and I left the apartment at 6.30am to drive about 50 miles across the Pennines to our Leeds dental workshop. Weather was pretty grim – fog and frost – and the traffic was a nightmare. I came to a standstill at 7.30am right on the tops of [...]
Delighted with our first bridge calls of 2006
After a day of 15-minute laser coaching calls, last evening I attended our first client bridge calls of the year. We hold these once a month, an hour for coaches and an hour for dentists. The coaches are well versed with the technology and etiquette of a bridge call, so its easy enough for me [...]
Sony.co.uk
I want to order some photo paper for the Sony digital photo printer that prints from my Sony digital camera (I’m a Sony addict – laptop, projector, camera, phone – I’d drive a Sony car if they made them). I visit the Sony.com web site and find the paper but I cannot buy it because [...]
The blessed business development day
Monday means no coaching. Its a business development day (or buffer day as Dan Sullivan would describe). I begin at 7.00am by writing this week’s ezine, then record my podcast, write this blog entry and, after a coffee break, will settle down to deal with those issues necessary to move my business forward. Phone calls [...]
Working closely
Out running again this morning – an hour of emails from 5.30am and then off for a 45-minute jog. This morning its cold and frosty in Farnham and I plod along the surrounding country lanes, passed by an endless line of commuters making their way into nearby Guildford or on to London by train. At [...]
The runner and the rabbits
As part of my new year CB makeover, I’ve started serious training again. This morning I woke at 5.30am and took a 40 minute run past Farnham Castle and to the top of Folly Hill. It was dark, windy, wet and cold – absolutley wonderful. I’m thinking like a runner again – and feeling the [...]
Balance in 2006
I’ve been writing my first ezine of the year this morning and reflecting on the changes I have made to my work schedule that will reduce the amount of business travel I suffer, the number of hotel rooms I have to stay in and allow me to spend more time on public transport and less [...]
