Does life as a lawyer have to suck so much?

If you’re a happy go-lucky lawyer who jumps out of bed every day ecstatic at the thought of running off to court or your office, then this is NOT for you!

But if you’re a lawyer who feels like it sucks - a lot - to run the daily gauntlet of the legal profession, then pull up a chair!

  • Constant deadlines, billable hours, demands, and caseloads

  • Chronic incivility and arguing

  • Feeling like you can’t take vacation because the work will pile up

  • Confusion and fear about going back into the office

  • Difficulty creating boundaries at home and at work

You can’t clap your hands three times and have all of that crap go away (unless you want to quit being a lawyer - which is a topic for another day).

But can’t a well-meaning lawyer just find a little more ease and a lot less exhaustion in the quest to represent clients, apply the law, and draft some arguments?

Hear this: being a successful lawyer should not drain the life out of you.

Just because “that’s the way it’s always been” (and has it really always been that way?) doesn’t mean that’s the way it has to be from this point forward.

It’s possible - in fact, there’s not even reasonable doubt - that your life as a lawyer can be different.

It’s within your reach to:

  • perform better, but with less effort

  • master an internal locus of control instead of feeling like you’re controlled externally by everything around you

  • understand what’s influencing your energy and potential in any situation

  • take a vacation (and leave the work phone behind) without coming back more stressed than when you left

  • find a perspective that supports you in either going back to the office or staying home
