Key Takeaways

  • Prioritize Relationships:
  • Use the holiday season to connect personally with your accounts through handwritten cards and expressions of appreciation. Small gestures can transform professional relationships.


    • Plan Strategically:
    • Focus on activities that will prepare you for success in the new year, such as reflecting on the past year, setting goals, and planning strategies.


      • Maximize Downtime:
      • Avoid overworking when offices and surgeons are unavailable. Use this time for personal development, such as listening to podcasts, enrolling in courses, or seeking mentorship.


        • Balance Work and Rest:
        • It’s okay to take breaks. Use downtime to recharge, gain clarity, and return refreshed for the busy months ahead.


          • Stay Ahead, Not Behind:
          • Don’t wait until January to start fresh. Use November and December to build momentum, set plans in motion, and reflect on personal growth.
