(#162) Therapists, do you really want to be Abundant or Content?

When someone is content, they don’t usually look for innovation, change or enhancements. This speaks to therapists who settle for clients and schedules that are far from their ideal ones. Meanwhile, therapists living in an abundant manner are committed to set a goal that exceeds the current state they’re in and are mindful about what they want and deserve.

In continuation to the Abundance series, Doctor TK poses a reflective question: Are you using your superhero power at the maximum capacity or are you limiting yourself? Listen as we dive deep into how abundance and contentment are often manifested in a therapist’s career & lifestyle and why you should choose one over the other.

Podcast Goals:  

• Understand the impact of certain internal and external activities to your financial threshold 
• Observe the behaviors of someone who’s likely stuck in the contentment space

 

Episode Timeline:

• Being abundant is wanting a large quantity of something, whether that is tangible or intangible materials (00:57)
• A financial thermometer threshold is set up based on someone’s money narrative, value from experiential academic experiences, or even a first job from postgrad (02:10)
• One way to expand your threshold is to gain exposure to practicum or internship sites (05:37)
• Scripting is another way that you can expand your threshold (08:54)
• Thinking about what you want vs what you lack is an excellent way to expand your thermometer threshold. Therapists can implement this by setting SMART goals (11:00)
• Being content is being okay with what is and having no care for innovation, change, or enhancements. Asking yourself about what makes you happy and whether or not you deserve to earn more can be the first step to avoid this particular state (17:27)

 

Standout Quotes from Doctor TK:

• "Don't just be hostage to your future goals. What goal do you have for yourself today? How much money do you want to generate in your business today? How many phone calls do you want to attract for referrals to your business today? How many of those phone calls do you want for those people to be your ideal clients today?" (16:35)
• "Look at your schedule now. And think about, if there were no limitations on anything, what would your schedule look like a year from now? Are those schedules the same or different? And if they're different, then why are you settling for your current schedule?" (19:55)
• "Also with clients, something you want to think about, is do you want to continue seeing the clients that you're currently seeing? Or do you wanna see your ideal clients? This is the difference between contentment and living your life in an abundant manner. You get to choose." (20:27)
