Today, we discuss the missing ingredient that you are not going to want to skip over to become a complete clinician. A lot of you spend a lot of time trying to get better. A lot of you take a lot of CE classes, but these classes are missing the secret ingredient to becoming a complete clinician. </span></p><br> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We talk about how people who attend the Seattle Study Club are there to improve themselves and to up their game. We also talk about how the Seattle Study Club is different from other study clubs. For one thing, most of their classes force you to engage with other people. The outcome of a group treatment planning session can be surprising and informative. Greg shares knowledge about expectations, changing habits, and more.</span></p><br> <p> </p><br> <p><strong>You can find Greg here:</strong></p><br> <p><a href="https://5dentalminutes.com/video/seattle-study-club-resources"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Greg Tice Seattle Study Club</span></a></p><br> <p><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/gregoryatice/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Greg Tice on LinkedIn</span></a></p><br> <p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/greg.tice.5"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Greg Tice on Facebook</span></a></p><br> <p> </p><br> <p><strong>Show Notes</strong></p><br> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">[01:38] The Seattle Study Club is one of the most brilliant business models ever created. The Founder Dr. Cohen created a system where the world's best educators come to you in your town no matter where you live.</span></p><br> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">[02:34] Getting into the Seattle Study Club is a privilege and an honor.</span></p><br> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">[03:11] Greg is the managing director of the Seattle Study Club. He has been with the Seattle Study Club for 22 years now. Prior to that he was a concert promoter.</span></p><br> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">[03:34] He has grown up with the organization over the last 22 years. He is really struck with the quality of individual that is attracted to the local Seattle Study Club.</span></p><br> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">[03:53] January 5th 1995 is the year Greg started in Seattle Study Club with Michael Cohen.</span></p><br> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">[04:18] The doctors were so open with each other talking about real-world things.</span></p><br> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">[05:13] You walk away going wow these were really amazing people. They are so willing to give and share.</span></p><br> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">[06:11] The first secret ingredient is expectation. You can't just go to a CE class and sit there and listen. Our brains work by by being engaged. When we listen to information we don't retain things that we don't already agree with. Engaging with others is how we change the information we already know and agree with.</span></p><br> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">[08:20] Think of your CE classes more like an education or hands on class not just listening to a lecture.</span></p><br> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">[09:40] With this approach, we actually change the way we are listening.</span></p><br> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">[10:34] How we are hardwired to act on autopilot 80% of the time. The real key to change a behavior is changing habits.</span></p><br> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">[12:23] The Seattle Study Club curriculum is designed to move people from point A to point B at any given time. We have 9 to 10 programs a year with one program per month. Two or three of these are full-day lecture programs. The other programs are designed around interaction and that is where the real learning takes place. Two or three of t</span></p>
