"I Don’t Have Time" — Why This Thought Is Keeping You Stuck in the Chair (and How to Get Out)
💥 Episode Summary:
If you’ve ever said, “I don’t have time,” this episode is for you.
Whether it’s training your team, implementing new systems, or simply taking a day to think strategically — time always seems to be the thing you’re short on. But what if time isn’t the problem?
In this episode, Dr. Yazdan dives deep into the mindset and business structure issues behind the "no time" excuse — and shows you how to reclaim your schedule, your leadership, and your life as a practice owner.
You’ll walk away with real talk, tactical shifts, and a powerful reframe on what it means to be a business owner versus just a busy dentist.
🎯 What You’ll Learn:
✅ Why more money won’t solve your time problem
✅ The invisible trap high-achieving dentists fall into — and how to escape it
✅ Why mastering your craft can actually make it harder to step away (and what to do about it)
✅ The identity shift you need to go from being in the business to working on it
✅ A new way to think about delegation (hint: it’s not laziness — it’s leadership)
✅ How to stop feeling guilty for doing the work that actually grows your business
💬 Quote of the Episode:
“Your time problem doesn’t get fixed when revenue increases — it gets worse unless your business becomes less dependent on you.”
🧠 A Thought Exercise to Try Today:
Next time you catch yourself thinking:
"I don’t have time..."
Try asking instead:
👉 “What if I’m wrong?”
👉 “What if I do have time for this?”
Your answers might surprise you — and start changing everything.
