Key Takeaways:

·        People really want to move beyond happiness & material possession, and find FULFILLMENT. We don’t want work/life balance, we want work/life harmony.

·        The one great equalizer is we all get 168 hours in a week. We are all equal that way. How we use that time is what separates the amateurs from the professionals. 

·        Creating space in your life and calendar is where your creativity comes alive. Creativity occurs within empty space. 

·        Retirement should be doing what you want, on your own terms. 

·        Learn and understand what your purpose is. It’s all about how you want to feel, not what you want to achieve or own. 

o  To find your purpose sit down and write down 7-10 of your happiest memories. Write 1-2 paragraphs on each of those memories.

o  Add the emotions and feelings within each memory.

o  Go back and circle the emotion words within your writing. Those emotions are your purpose. 

·        The greatest failure in the world is achieving everything you want and still being unfulfilled.

·        Once you’ve discovered your purpose, take those emotions and insert them into the activity you’re undertaking. That’s the way to find fulfillment in the things you do every day. 

·        Burnout is prevalent with dentists. A lot of that is due to internal narratives. 

·        We’ve all been trained to play small. We want to not be afraid of being human, of being normal. 

·        If you’re doing something that’s draining your batteries, 

·        7 characteristics of yin and yang. When doing anything, consider these 7 questions. If what your doing answers most of these positively you’ll be much more fulfilled.

o  Is it serving a sense of mission?

o  Did you do it from a place of freedom?

o  Are you doing it with love?

o  Was there adventure involved?

o  When you do this, does it fill you up?

o  Does it create a sense of safety? 

o  Does it allow you to speak your truth through love?

·        The two greatest factors for an extraordinary marriage are love and respect. Women desire love. Men want respect. 

·        4 quadrants of life – all four need to be address in order to be fulfilled.

o  Logical – brain

o  Emotional – heart

o  Physical – body

o  Spiritual – soul
