Planning for and moving toward future goals are two different things. My long-time friend and colleague in orthodontics, Dustin Burleson, joins the show today to tackle how to do both. Dustin covers decision-making and action-taking in a way that considers the long game—even in a fast-paced world. Rather than continuously pushing goals into the future, he breaks down how you can navigate your life and career more intentionally and successfully.
Listen in as Dustin unpacks the common pitfalls in how we think about the future and our goals. You’ll learn the consequences of short-term thinking on long-term plans and valuable insight into asking the right questions, making better decisions, and soaking up important lessons as you go.
