Learning ultrasound takes a long time. Motivation is great for getting started but it wears off after time. Thankfully there is a way to keep going and achieve our goals and that is by forming a habit.

By practising ultrasound regularly and building it into your daily work routine, habit takes over after a few weeks and actually prompts you to do it.

While you scan, get into the habit of always optimizing your image: depth, focus, gain and it will soon become automatic.

Our habits are far more powerful than we realize. They often hold us back from learning but we can actually hack into this power and use them to reach our goals.
