Sleeping at Night

I spent the end of last week at the 3D Summit in Boston. Throughout the course there was one word that kept popping up – Confidence. Definition: The state of being certain either that a hypothesis or prediction is correct or that a chosen course of action is the best or most effective. The question was asked, “Do you have confidence in your ability to diagnose, treatment plan, and ultimately, perform?” The technology that is available today may not be a “necessity” in your practice, but it certainly can help in these areas.

This technology is not cheap, and it’s not for everyone, but there is value in being able to sleep at night. Imtiaz Manji talks about ‘sleeping at night’ as it refers to being confident in your decisions and your ability to perform. When you are in bed at night, it’s nice to not lay awake thinking about the procedures you did that day. It is comforting to know that you performed at your highest potential and that you are satisfied with the outcome.

Do you have confidence in your ability to diagnose?

Do you have confidence in your ability to treat?

Do you have confidence in yourself?
