ABOUT THIS EPISODE
You can have fifteen patients tell you what a great job you did, and then one thing goes imperfectly and that’s the memory that follows you home. Sound familiar?
This week we’re unpacking Vince Lombardi’s famous line, “Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection, we can catch excellence,” and what it actually means for a profession that selects perfectionists, then throws up challenges every day. Plus, how can a cornerback mentality help?
Today on Not Another Curbside:

- The cornerback mentality: why the next play has to be the biggest play.
- Your play for the day - living a flat-line life (better than it sounds).
