Summary
Spotlight vs Floodlight: Mastering Focus as an Optometry Practice Owner | E290 Highlights from this episode: Spotlight vs Floodlight: Mastering Focus as an Optometry Practice Owner (00:46) Closing Thought: The Blind Man's Stick In this week's episode, we are breaking down why your attention is the most valuable resource you have as a practice owner and how learning to control it can transform your patient care, your team culture, and your burnout level. I share what I’ve learned about using “spotlight” focus in the exam lane, “floodlight” awareness for your staff and culture, and why living in constant juggling mode will wear you out fast. This shift in how I manage my time and focus has helped us maintain revenue with fewer exams and create a healthier, more sustainable practice. If you feel scattered, reactive, or burned out, this episode will challenge you to take back control of where your energy really goes.
