Set and Own Your Goals for the Coming Year

Apart from mandatory annual goal-setting sessions in larger corporate and private practice environments, few lawyers take the time to set personal goals. After all, by simply practicing the law, with time and experience, there is an expectation that the average lawyer will naturally and incrementally progress in their skillset. The market affirms this principle and accepts for lawyers to proportionally increase their billable rates on an annual basis.

Many lawyers rely upon such default career growth, however, those who stand out from the pack are often more intentional about their professional development and regularly set authentically inspired goals to achieve their extraordinary results.
