No, but as author A.S. says, “Do for one what you wish you could do for everyone.” Here's a little nudge: Don't allow robots, algorithms, antiquated processes, phrases from your te...

You'll know it has infected your practice when you hear phrases like that. Until one day, you look up, overhear, or like the Terminator, become self-aware o...
