This week's major entertainment is a "work holiday" (as my daughter Grace calls my work trips) to see my great friends, Brenda and David Nelson, and to lecture at the Marlborough Clinic study day in Belfast.
As has been the way of many things over the past 2 years or so, I've been talking about atraumatic extraction and ridge preservation because it's a hot topic, and it's developing all the time in our clinic, and it's quite exciting.
We work as a team, though, as a true team, and therefore, we have extraordinary material across the board that we've collected from Alex and Andy, Dominic, Beatriz, Colin and others and therefore, putting a lecture together like this, even though I have a lecture that I did on this in January, means streamlining the amount of content and material to tell the story that you want to tell to give people the maximum benefit.
And that's the metaphor, isn't it? None of us are short of information now, and none of us are short of potential tools to access the information that we need; what we're short of is a discipline to limit our input.
Years ago, we used to talk about 'drinking from a fire hose' when social media first arrived. The fire hose just got much, much wider, much, much faster, much more incessant.
Don't spend your time looking for new ways to get information; spend your time learning how to limit your attention to the things that are most important.
