So you just have to listen to what you want to do as opposed to looking at other people who may be doing nine to five days or working six days a week or if you're crazy enough to do seven days a week. So it's just whatever you find comfortable for yourself. So, which goes on to my first point which is getting true with your, with your mind and your body. What are you capable of...? Jaz's Introduction: Are you feeling just a little bit overwhelmed at the moment like one of my friends dentist, he said to me that I just wish things would just slow down like after the lockdown. After everything that happened during COVID when we experienced some sort of anxious tranquility. I feel as though now things are getting really busy for us and a lot of us are experiencing that huge dump to being overwhelmed and burnt out. If this is you, it certainly hasn't me in many moments. And that's not just because of the podcast right now that there are so many things in life. We try our best as dental professionals, as family members, as friends and colleagues to make everything work. And in such a busy life things can get really really hectic. Hello, Protruserati. I'm Jaz Gulati and welcome to this episode entitled productivity with a prosthodontist with my good friend Ricky Bhopal, because I wanted to learn myself like how does Ricky who's a young associate recently qualified specialist prosthodontist. I look up to him as someone who is just full of systems and tricks and wisdom and knowledge in terms of how to live a fulfilled and productive life. I think now, we need to stop working so hard and start working smarter. So this episode is very much focused on getting that connection between mind and body, but also strategies to help improve your workflow, how to fit in those treatment plan letters that we'd write to our patients how to make sure we make time for our loved ones. I loved it when Ricky covered that actually. So this episode, I'm hoping to be very useful for all of us in terms of being able to enjoy life more, but also get more done. Before we jump into this, what I hope will be a very impactful episode for you is the Protrusive Dental pearl, the one I'm showing you today is an add on of the previous pearl I've shared which is the otter app. So the otter is the website is www.otter.ai. And what this is, is a transcription service. This is not sponsored, I don't get anything from this, this is just me sharing something that's really working for me. So as you know, some of you know that I do some virtual consultations or invisalign and smile design consultations, just to see who's suitable and who's not. Because there's no point of seeing someone who really needs a full examination to come to see you in the practice for a Invisalign consultation as a waste of chair time.
