Have you ever marveled at a healthcare private practice's powerful engine and wondered what fuels its drive?

On this episode of Practice Freedom, Mark reveals the core of true progress: the underestimated might of discipline and the compounding effect of routine. As Mark reflects on personal triumphs and stumbles, we dissect the role that consistent, bite-sized actions play in steering the ship toward long-term success, carving out a discussion that's as much about self-improvement as it is about business acumen.

Mark weaves together setting realistic goals with the neurological wonders of habit formation. We're exploring the everyday grind that builds success. From the importance of celebrating small victories to the impact of daily investments in our future, this episode is a deep dive into the mechanics of building a disciplined life and thriving business that stands the test of time.
