Life is a theater. Invite your audience carefully. Not everyone is healthy enough to have a front row seat in our lives. There are some people in your life that need to be loved from a distance. It’s amazing what you can accomplish when you let go, or at least minimize, your time with draining, negative, incompatible, not-going-anywhere relationships / friendships.
One day when I was a freshman in high school, I saw a kid from my class walking home from school. His name was Kyle. It looked like he was carrying all of his books. I thought to myself, “Why would anyone bring home all of his books on a Friday? He must really be a nerd.”
One of the points in my career that helped me to take a major step forward in my practice and personal life happened while reading one of B.J. Palmer’s Green Books. I have always heard most of the “on purpose” chiropractors like Dr. Sid Williams or Dr. Jim Sigafoose talking about the invaluable information B.J. Palmer had bestowed upon using his numerous writings. So, I began collecting and reading anything I could get my hands on that B.J. Palmer wrote.
Why do students need chiropractic philosophy? In most chiropractic colleges, students are overwhelmed by chiropractic science and technique, leaving philosophy as an afterthought. Oftentimes, that results in young DCs who are unsure about their purpose, unsure about the results of chiropractic care or who are simply not passionate about their profession. Chiropractic philosophy helps to create certainty and a sense of purpose. Chiropractic philosophy helps the student keep the enthusiasm and the drive necessary to go through 4 or 5 years of studying, tests, boards and practice building! Chiropractic philosophy is essential. Why? Because philosophy is the soul of any profession. It is what defines the way of thinking and acting of its members. We owe it to the founders of chiropractic to keep the flame alive and unsoiled.
