Do You.

There's an unstated caveat to all my posts about "things to do in #biglaw":

Be yourself.

What works for me may not work for you.

And vice versa.

That is okay--in fact, that is welcomed.

What I offer are things to try.

Keep what works and leave the rest.

The point is to create systems that allow you to thrive, that help you build autonomy, that help you bring your whole self to a tough job.

This profession needs you--as you are, who you are, all of you.

The more humanity we bring, the better off we'll all be.

So: take my advice with a grain of salt.

I really want you to be empowered to try, empowered to find what works and what doesn't, and empowered to succeed because you build a practice that suits you and no one else.
