#123 The 80/20 Rule for Massage Therapists—Take Back Your Time with Krista Dicks, RMT

Hello Radical Massage Therapist! I journaled daily on these 17 questions as shared by Tim Ferriss and I wanted to share my answers with you. The question in this episode is: What's the least crowded channel? How could this relate to your massage career and how could it relate to your personal life? What the heck does this question mean anyway? Well, here's how I applied it to this exercise... Since massage therapy is so wonderful- we try to share massage therapy with everyone! We can treat it all so why not list everything we do and every modality? Our practice is located in a city with a large population - why shouldn't I advertise everywhere? Well, when you consider these areas may be very crowded with other massage therapists doing the same thing- you may not stand out. Check out this episode for ideas on how you can access the least crowded channel and find the right clients for you and the right massage therapists to work with! I hope you enjoy!

Hello Radical Massage Therapist! I journaled daily on these 17 questions as shared by Tim Ferriss and I wanted to share my answers with you. The question in this episode is: What If I Let Them Make Decisions Up To $100? $500? $1,000? How could this relate to your massage career and how could it relate to your personal life? If you are a clinic owner and you feel like all the decisions come down on you and you would like to give some responsibility back to your team then this episode is worth a listen! How would it feel if you told your team "I Trust You." ? As a clinic owner I share how I have implemented the $100 or less rule to give my colleagues the power to make decisions on behalf of the clinic. It helps to give me the freedom I am seeking as a business owner too. Because the last thing you want when you're on holiday is a text message that says "we're out of toilet paper." I hope you enjoy!

Hello Radical Massage Therapist! I journaled daily on these 17 questions as shared by Tim Ferriss and I wanted to share my answers with you. The question in this episode is: What's The Worst That Could Happen? Could I Get Back Here? How could this relate to your massage career and how could it relate to your personal life? We all know what Goal Setting is and how to map out a plan to achieve the goal but rarely do we consider breaking down our fears surrounding the goal and often the fear paralyzes us into not taking action and it also gives us some pretty good excuses to keep us safe from taking risks. Enter Fear Setting. Tim has a simple pen to paper method for mapping out your fears surrounding a particular goal that helps you to see your fears not as mountains but as mole hills. I lay it out in this episode and share some of my own examples. I love this exercise and I have used it a few times in my career and personal life which has given me the confidence to take risks and move abroad and also open my own massage practice. I hope you enjoy!
