Often anxious patients rub off on the clinic and it can create a tough working environment. The pandemic changed the way society operated and we all became scared due to the new pressure and stresses of COVID. Being scared and anxious became part of normal everyday life. It’s important to make decisions about your business in your natural state and not when you’re stuck in a thought tangle. A thought tangle will revert back to a natural state over time but it’s essential to spot them when it happens when you become overwhelmed and your mind is screaming at you. Don’t make decisions in an anxious state and let imposter syndrome take over. You need to learn to ignore yourself. BEST MOMENTS “My business hit seven figures and there was just an empty feeling.”“I'd found peace of mind and the thing that I'd been searching for”“People are scared, but they had no problem being scared. They were just scared and there’s a real difference.”“Osteopathy is an art and you’re totally absorbed by it. It just flows through you naturally and you're not even aware of it.”“If you don't know, you're drunk, you're in trouble. That's a great analogy.”“If you understand what's going on, you can just ignore yourself.” VALUABLE RESOURCESThe Osteobiz mastermindwww.osteobiz.as.me/consultationwww.osteobiz.com CONTACT METHODhttps://www.instagram.com/gillywoodhouse/[email protected]://business.facebook.com/Osteobiz/ABOUT THE HOSTSince 2013, Gilly Woodhouse has been inspiring and developing Osteopaths, other healthcare professionals and their clinics.
