PASSION AND CONVICTION
By Dr Doug Herron

“Great dancers are not great because of their technique - they are great because of their PASSION.”
Martha Graham
1894-1991, Dancer, Teacher and Choreographer

“I am more convinced by the depth of your CONVICTION than by the amount of your logic”
Dr Jim Parker, Chiropractic Educator and Legend

What we do when we serve the community as Chiropractors is potentially profound. This is true because of congruence with Natural laws and in spite of “conventional wisdom” that forms the default paradigm shared by much of our community.

Bruce Lipton’s presentation provided us with two encouragements:

One, that scientific thot is moving rapidly towards the original premise that chiropractic was founded on. Wow!!!!!!!!!! How exciting to think that DD Palmer was postulating quantum ideas in a Newtonian world even before Einstein’s work was published. Even Stevenson’s text from 1927 which summarized DD’s work to enable the education of students was published before quantum mechanics was widely understood. I don’t know about you but I am very proud and humbled to be a part of a profession that has been on the cutting edge of thots and ideas for so long. This pride fuels my conviction, ignites my passion and increases my certainty. Thus when I serve my clients and community with my chiropractic skills and ideas I do so at a higher energy which delivers a greater result for each person! What about you?

Two, there were 550 people listening in a hot crowded room to an academic speak about complex scientific principles presented in a simple way and only 150 were DC’s or students. 400 regular folk were hungry for a better truth and are open to it. WOW again!!!!!! The friends I invited were amazed, excited and inspired that lives could be improved through a simple application of profound ideas. People are really open to what Chiropractic has to offer. All of us can operate from an open, abundant mentality rather than cower shyly and fearfully in the corner as if our ideas are too strange to even be considered. All it takes is certainty sprinkled with conviction and presented with passion and a searching world can be lead to a higher level of health and human performance.

1. How does your conviction about who you are and what you have to offer through your chiropractic service stack up?
2. How effectively is your passion for people and for the possibility of improved health and life through chiropractic being expressed?
3. It is not about the data. It is about owning the principles and letting your best be your best. Just do it with passion and conviction.
