I love this post. It just speaks to me because it is the story of someone who didn’t know they weren’t supposed to be able to succeed because they didn’t do it the ‘right’ way, the ‘conventional’ way. It’s a story of determination and going so far past the ‘extra mile’ it’s awe-inspiring. It is […]
Let me preface this post with the following: we have an amazing group of students attending Solo Practice University ranging from 3Ls to twenty year veteran professionals. It is also not our practice to share conversations outside our walls. However, within one of our favorite groups, The Student Lounge, I posed the following question: “If […]

Jane Pauley, who hosts ‘Life Reimagined TODAY’, was interviewed on the ‘Sunday Morning’ show January 12th about her new book looking at baby boomers in transition. Even Queen Latifah had Kenneth Delmar (great video), an established painter, appear on her […]
Oftentimes we think those who have ‘made it’ have some magical powers, lots of influential friends, and hidden stores of gold to help them through the tough times. Seldom, if ever, is this the case. I did find this placard. It is as good a basis as any to help you muscle through the challenges […]
When exactly does a new lawyer quit being a ‘new’ lawyer? One of the biggest fears most of us have about hanging a shingle right out of law school is that we are too new, too untested. We’re going to screw it up. Better get a ‘safe’ BigLaw job and get some experience and mentoring […]
(Reprinted with permission) My marathon journey started in 2011 after I read Jack Canfield’s The Success Principles: How to Get from Where You Are to Where You Want to Be.
