Your Year to Getting Registered take 2

“People do not decide their futures. They decide their habits and their habits decide their futures.” – F.M Alexander

Happy New Year!
If you have been following along regularly on my blog you’ll note my last post was entitled ‘Take a Break’. I took that to heart too. : )

I paused my blog the end of last year to focus more on my training program, the clinics I support and also included a great trip to Orlando for the ASET conference. But now I am back at it revisiting a really important topic: ’Your Year to Getting Registered’.

Since the new year is a popular time to set resolutions; for many, working on our financial goals is at the top of the list. The best advice I have for you if you are a technician working in this field is to get registered. This is the area where you can have the most impact on tackling that goal.

You might be thinking where will I find the time in my already busy life…2 quick tips:

1 – Wake up early EVERY day – for some of the most successful people, waking up early is the key to their success. (note the opening habits quote – read that again)
2 – Pair down your social media time – it’s no surprise that social media has become a huge part of our lives and sadly, it can be responsible for thousands of wasted hours.

Start taking small steps to work on your goal to becoming registered:

1 – Read – There are a lot of good technical books out there but my go to recommended book for my students is Fisch and Spehlmann’s EEG Primer: Basic Principals of Digital and Analog EEG. There are a lot of other really good ones out there too – but getting back to basics is a great first start!

2 – Move – Make it a habit to get out of your lab daily. Talk with your doctors….ask them about their patients. Your doctors are going to be your best teachers. If you don’t work in an area where your doctors are available; read their reports on the tests you run. Did you see what they saw?

3 – Connect – Access productive Neurodiagnostic sites that are going to support you in your goal. Reach out to other technicians that are already registered for advice and support. And don’t forget to subscribe to receiving this blog directly in your inbox – just enter your address at the bottom of the website: (NeurodiagnosticNiche.com).

and lastly,

4 – Join – Look for a way to build your study resources. On-line courses, trainers, tutors…we will all support you in your goal to becoming registered.

Remember…small steps.
You might feel overwhelmed to do them all at once…commit to making 1 change a week. The goal is to add new habits to prepare yourself for taking the board exam this new year.

It’s a New Year of possibilities! Are you ready?
