In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Margaret Enloe discuss:
- Narrowing down what you want to pursue and what drives you.
- Thinking about change and better habits.
- Stepping out of the weeds of everyday work to look at the bigger picture of your business.
- Getting a mentor and/or coach to grow in life and business.
Key Takeaways:
- Better habits start with becoming more self-aware. As you build better habits, your confidence will grow and, as a lawyer, you need to be able to project that confidence to your clients.
- Time management is a habit that can be learned and can help you to better meet the bigger goals in your business and life.
- Ask for feedback, both good and bad, from those you trust to be honest with you and with the clients that you’ve been working with for a long time.
- Most people get a lot out of helping and lifting others. They are more likely to say yes and give advice when asked than you think.
"Better habits start with becoming more self-aware. What is it that I'm doing? Is that either something I should continue or strengthen? What am I doing that is getting in the way and holding me back?" — Margaret Enloe
