“A mediocre dentist has the potential with deliberate practice to improve significantly even in the second half of their career.” ~Dr. Chad Johnson
The first of 20 asynchronous business book review episodes arrives today as Everyday Practices Podcast co-hosts Dr. Chad Johnson and Regan Robertson discuss the national best-selling Talent Is Overrated: What Really Separates World-Class Performers from Everybody Else by Geoff Colvin. This book challenges the notion of natural talent and argues that deliberate practice is the key to achieving incredible success.
Dr. Chad and Regan review the highlights of Colvin’s book, and they add a little of their own experiences, what they’ve learned, how they might apply Colvin’s lessons, and certainly, how you can too. Whether you’re a seasoned dental professional or you’re just beginning your career, this episode will challenge you to think differently about what it takes to achieve world-class performance.
Think of these questions as you move through this episode:
- Are practice and experience the same thing?
- What advantages do you gain when you begin deliberately practicing (as a child and in your later years)?
- How does your inner drive relate to practice?
