So what’s next for Dr. Eric??

Thanks a bunch for going through the “Think and Grow Rich” Series with me.

​

If you’ve been following from the beginning, you know it’s been a big undertaking. I hope you got something out of it.

​

But what now? What’s next?

​

I’m glad you asked.

​

The “Think and Grow Rich” Series taught me a lot. It taught me a lot about planning (and how plans can go out the window). It taught me a lot about managing a team, dealing with setbacks, and being data oriented.

​

Most importantly, it taught me that I’ve been going about Psychiatry and Religion all wrong.

​

You heard me right! ALL WRONG!!!

​

Psychiatry and Religion started out as a passion project. I wanted to offer the world my insights from a Psychiatrist who happens to be Religious. I find my patients benefit a lot from this combined view. The only logical step is to try to reach as many people as possible!

​

However, in my journey, I learned that Psychiatry and Religion does not exist in a vacuum. It became impossible, as a psychiatrist and a believer, to ignore the very real and obvious economic dynamics that affect our lives. My work eventually evolved from just Psychiatry and Religion to one that recognizes the tension between Capital and Labor as significant contributor to mental health disorders and existential crises.

​

Sooooo…now what do I do?

​

I’ve come to learn that if I want to engage the world, I need to engage it as a market. I need to understand marketing in order to reach people the right way.

​

But I’m not a marketing expert. Boooooooo!

​

So that means a lot of reading, a lot of research, and a lot of experimentation. Expect big changes to come! I’m excited! I hope you are too!

​

As always, thanks for reading.
