A mentor is someone who sees more talent and ability within you than you see in yourself and helps bring it out of you." — Bob Proctor.

Our partner keeps giving us more work to do. The court schedules unexpected hearings. Our clients call, asking us to help resolve a crisis. We are constantly interrupted by staff calls and emails. We have so much work and seemingly so little time that we feel overwhelmed and stressed. What to do? How do we manage this daunting workload?

The power of accountability in achieving your goals as a lawyer lies in its ability to provide structure, focus, and motivation throughout your journey. When you hold yourself accountable to yourself or a mentor, you create a framework for progress, setting clear objectives and deadlines to work towards.

Are you truly happy where you are? Do you ever need clarification about where you want to be and what you want to do? Do you ever wish you had true clarity about your path in life and your profession?

“Never, ever, ever, write off anything you’ve achieved as merely being lucky. You are not lucky: you are hard-working and capable. Don’t ever question it.”

― Charlene Walters
