Looking after yourself
It's a fact that every hour lawyers spend at work, thinking about work, or obsessing about work is an hour they can't spend with their family or friends or being active in politics, religion, or community, all "non-billable" activities.
When your work takes over other things in your life such as family, leisure time or relationships, then your life is definitely out of balance. No matter how successful you may be at work, your life is a struggle in other areas.
So how would you like a lifestyle that allows you more time and energy for those non-billable activities? Well, believe it or not, it is possible, even allowing for the realities of a high-pressured job.
The challenge is not about having insufficient time. It is about being able to give time and energy to areas in your life that you value outside of your work.
Now you can do something about it. Learn how to balance your life and inject fresh energy and enthusiasm into your work.
