Hey lawyers! I belong to several groups of attorneys on social media. I recently encountered a solo practitioner with mindset that was really holding her back. I don’t know if she even realized how prohibitive her thinking was to the success of her law firm. This attorney listed all of the challenges that she was having in her law practice and then continued to go into detail regarding how things could never change or improve. My question for all of you butt-kicking attorneys is: How does your mindset affect the success of your law practice? Are you holding onto limiting beliefs? Or are you thinking outside of the box? Check out this video to learn how to avoid toxic patterns of thinking that will hold you back!

Hey lawyers! The legal field is changing SO much! There is now more of an emphasis on technology, digitization, and work/life balance than there has ever been. I think that these changes to the practice of law are excellent for both our personal well being and success as entrepreneurial attorneys. I also value time-tested skills such as quality of interaction with clients, communication, and customer service. Is your law practice moving towards the future while maintaining important old-school skills and techniques? Check out this video to learn how you can be “new-school” and “old-school” at the same time… the best of both worlds!

Hey lawyers! There is an old saying- Find out what you’re bad at, and don’t do it! You don’t have to do everything in running your law practice. You can delegate the tasks that don’t speak to your strengths. You can also delegate tasks that you just don’t enjoy doing. Find people who are better at certain things or more enthusiastic about certain tasks, and work with them! For example, I’m crazy about working in regulatory compliance. Dozens of pages of legal and technical writing? Sign me up for that! (I know, I’m a weirdo.) But these areas aren’t everyone’s cup of tea. Maybe you prefer client interaction and litigation. Check out this video to learn what tasks you shouldn’t be doing in your law practice!

Hey lawyers! As law firm owners, we have so many hats to wear, working both on and in our businesses. A colleague asked me the other day where I spend the majority of my efforts. For me it’s probably 50/50, working on business growth half of the time and completing work for my clients the other half of the time. Where do you spend the majority of your time? Are you happy with the division of your efforts? Watch this video to learn how you can make changes to achieve your ideal division of time ON and IN your business!

Hey lawyers! Were you ever teased as a kid for being a copycat? As it turns out that’s okay! I encourage you to notice the things that your colleagues are doing well and learn from them.
