Are your business goals holding you back? In this episode of Bootstrap MD, Dr. Mike Woo-Ming, shares a game-changing mindset shift for healthcare professionals tired of unpredictable revenue and burnout. Drawing from his experience building seven-figure businesses, Dr. Woo-Ming explains why focusing on systems, not goals, is the key to sustainable success. He breaks down why goal-only thinking creates feast-or-famine cycles, feelings of failure, and vulnerability to real-world variables like staff turnover or market shifts. Through practical examples—like patient acquisition, content marketing, hiring, and investment systems—Dr. Woo-Ming offers a four-step framework to systemize your practice or side hustle. This episode is packed with actionable strategies to help physicians take control of their income, time, and freedom by building reliable, repeatable processes.

Three Actionable Takeaways:

1. Define Specific, Measurable Outcomes – Set clear but flexible goals (e.g., "10 paying coaching clients in 60 days") to guide your system-building without micromanaging every detail.

2. Focus on Repeatable Inputs – Identify and schedule consistent weekly tasks (e.g., outreach to 5 leads, creating 1 video) that drive your outcomes, ensuring control over what you can predictably execute.

3. Track Inputs, Not Just Results – Monitor weekly system tasks (e.g., discovery calls booked, content published) using simple tools like Google Docs or Loom to ensure consistency and improve outcomes over time.
