London

The United Chiropractic Association of the UK invited me to London to teach a Five Star Special called "Success: The Big Picture!" I love London and the UK DCs I've met have been so great that I was looking forward to the trip for months. I asked Dr. George Birnbach to accompany me and he was as excited as I was.

We arrived a couple days early to adjust to the 8 hr time difference, do a little sight seeing and brainstorm about Five Star. We stomped that city into the ground, had a great dinner with Dr. Paul Irvine and his lovely new bride, Donna.

The seminar started with "The Five Most Exciting Things You'll Ever Love About Chiropractic" and went on to The 13 Keys To Doing Your Best Ever Year and (of course) New Patients. George presented riveting one hour intensive on how to do a persuasive lecture and we ended with by constructing a Blueprint for Success. Everyone pitched in and the seminar was an unqualified success! Every practice tool we brought to help our guests was snatched up right away and George met and signed many motivated new clients. We couldn't have been happier.

Later that night, seven of us ended up at Dr. Des Dee's favorite restaurant for dinner. We sat down at 830PM and laughed and talked until we left at 11PM. Early in the evening I raised a glass and toasted chiropractic, chiropractors and those who love what we love. After handshakes and hugs George and I hailed a cab. On the way back to the hotel I thought about the many lovely dinners with wonderful people I've enjoyed because of chiropractic. What struck me was how similar we chiropractors are. We are a band of brothers and sisters with a purpose and that purpose is our precious chiropractic.
