Stop Wishing, Start Expecting: Personal and Practice Goal Setting to Battle Burnout

Greg Tice | Friday, October 09, 2026 |

Why do we keep falling back into old patterns? Why can’t we just decide what to do and then do it?Executing all of our plans, ideas, hopes and desires is the single biggest obstacle we face. Because we are naturally self-regulating as human beings, we can actually take advantage of the way our brains work to create the practice, life and team we want.

This session will not only help you identify what works cognitively when trying to create change in the practice, it will also help you establish (as a team) short- and long-term goals to create accountability and define the necessary steps to achieve your greatest aspirations. This combination lecture and workshop will explore in detail the specific psychological principles and processes that help us move toward achieving our potential.

UPON COMPLETION OF THIS SESSION, ATTENDEES SHOULD BE ABLE TO:

  • Implement simple, effective goal-setting processes for their practice.
  • Establish a framework for accountability and efficacy with the entire team.
