Striking a Balance
One of the most balanced attorneys for whom I’ve worked was a telecom attorney whose passion was yoga and healthy living. He would do telecom litigation by day and teach yoga classes at night. He made time for the things that mattered to him and set boundaries with the firm. It helped that he was in high demand by the clients, but I think his keeping his goals in sight was also a great way to maintain balance.
Today I came upon the blog of Ken Harris, Jr., a BigLaw attorney turned solo who appears to be striking a balance by competing in triathalons. More power to him! I always enjoy reading blogs by parents who have found away to maintain a healthy balance between career, family and personal goals. His blog looks pretty interesting. Check it out here.
