## Resource

Two callers, two problems every practice owner runs into. The first is a self-described systems guy whose team keeps reverting to old habits two weeks after every meeting, vision cast, and lunch-and-learn. The second is an associate who just carved out one day a week away from the chair and wants to know how to actually use it. Peter and Craig push back on both. To the first caller: "I've tried everything" is the language of defeat, and the issue usually isn't the team, it's leadership, incentives, and whether you've ever asked your people what they actually want. To the second: an admin day isn't the same as working on the business, and stacking marketing or payroll onto a practice with a leaky recare rate or unanswered phones is just stepping over dollars to grab pennies. Find the real constraint first. Along the way: why incentives beat vision casting, the John Maxwell line on leaders with no followers, anonymous team surveys, finding your big rocks before your sand, and why the owner's psychology is so often the chokehold of the business.
