THINK ABOUT IT! is a Self-Help book containing 72 thought-provoking epigrams which help people reflect and learn about themselves.
Though it is for SELF help, it is not "selfish"! This may seem a contradiction, but helping others can be “selfish” because of the satisfaction and rewards it brings!
How do YOU feel when a patient expresses genuine gratitude and affection for you and the practice? THINK ABOUT that! It is a self-help book which also values how to make others feel good - especially PATIENTS!
How to use the book: it's great for "flicking though"; or choose one section/step first; or study the index; the choice is yours! But please note that, though you may laugh out loud frequently, all epigrams are SERIOUS - to provide guidance as well as amusement.
This book is great for team meetings - to get to know and help each other and "see ourselves as others see us" - lots of fun as well as tailored learning!

Some example epigrams to THINK ABOUT ....
-
number 1 - you can only control what you can control, but YOU CAN CONTROL what you can control.
-
number 30 - the comfort zone can be tempting, but it's CHALLENGE, even fear, which helps us grow as people.
-
number 32 - when the “what’s the point” moments hit, ask yourself “what IS the point?” Why ARE you doing what you’re doing?
-
number 49 - now here's an original thought, the other person (eg a patient) MIGHT BE RIGHT !
-
number 51 - the best way to diffuse an argument is to APOLOGISE to the other person - even when they're wrong!
-
number 59 - trust and believe others ALL THE TIME - life is more relaxing and fulfilling than being paranoid!
The last two - numbers 51 and 59 - are especially good examples to THINK about, because they appear counter-intuitive at first. But they ARE often true and may sometimes apply to you - especially with patients - THINK ABOUT THAT!
