One of the benefits of attending Life Chiropractic College-West was the access to and influence of Dr. Dan Murphy.
…and the #1 thing that stuck with me was this one Dan Murphy quote:
“Never get programmed”
It has stuck with me to this day.
I think, although I am not certain, that was Dr. Dan’s way of telling the students not to believe or buy into everything they hear.
Use your head.
Just because a “successful” invited guest speaker comes to the college to speak, don’t assume that what you are hearing is true, accurate, or “the way”….and this goes for the instructors too. They too have egos and agendas.
Overall, I think that most Chiropractic students do a pretty good job questioning “authority”.
But after a few years of practicing and struggling, many lose their critical thinking and just want to make money. As a result, they actually want to believe everything they hear—especially if it has to do with making a quick buck.
“Never get programmed” has served me well.
Thank you Dr. Dan.
