Today, Dr. Killeen explores James Clear’s idea of habit stacking and why it can make new systems much easier for dental teams to follow. The problem with most new systems is not that people do not care. It is that they are trying to remember a new behavior in the middle of an already busy day. The solution is to attach the new behavior to something the team already does automatically. “When X happens, we do Y.” By connecting new systems to existing habits, you reduce the need for willpower and make consistency much more natural.
