Mr. Positivity?\n\n\n\n[David]Jaz, Good to be here.\n\n\n\n[Jaz]Absolutely. And I when I thought, right, I want to do something like 12 rules for dentistry because, obviously the book by Jordan Peterson, and a lot of other industries and professions have sort of made their own 12 rules if you'd like. And I thought, right, if I do something like this, there's only one person in the world I can think of who would match it so and who will do it justice. And that's, you\n\n\n\n[David]I appreciate that. I didn't know it's your may have connected me since on the sorts of topics I think, really, we've always talked about things beyond the clinical side of things of dentistry.\n\n\n\n[Jaz]That's right. Remember the first time we met and we discovered our mutual interest for self development and positivity and that sort of stuff? Do you ever do remember?\n\n\n\n[David]It was [inaudible] award?\n\n\n\n[Jaz]It was. It was British and ronix. And it was actually you introduced me to Tony Robbins. Yeah. That's quite life changing.

It's you know, you might enjoy some of them. You might hate some of them. That's completely cool. Okay? Weird is this something that me and David sort of looked at and agreed on that? You know, actually, and there might be some things that we haven't actually rehearsed this. So there might be some things and I said today Look, it's completely cool if we disagree on something. So let's go. So rule number one for rules in a 12 rules for dentistry or 12 rule for dentists or everyone involved in dentistry is see everyone. So David, I came up, well I didn't come up with this rule. I pinched this rule from a book that's called If I could just tell you one thing by Richard Reed, have you read that one?\n\n\n\n[David]I haven't. No.\n\n\n\n[Jaz]So Richard Reed, he he's basically meets all these powerful people in the world. And he just answered one piece of advice. And what Bill Clinton said was See everyone. And what that means is basically that Bill Clinton, he has a very special talent, or a gift is that he makes everyone feel important from the person wh...
