Episode notes

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and John Kormanik discuss:

Creating a career that allowed John to have greater impact and geographic independence.
Picking a firm and practice area that aligns with your values and lights you up.
Lies lawyers accept in their profession.
Setting expectations and boundaries in your career.

Key Takeaways:

We are all placed on the planet to do incredible things.
If you are busy, you are lazy because you aren’t making the hard decisions that need to be made for what gets you to stay on your 168-hour week.
It is hard to improve when you’re on your own. You cannot see where your blindspots are and where improvements can be made.
You are the bottleneck if you are trying to do everything yourself. You cannot do it all and expect to grow.

"The fact of the matter is, you went to law school to have freedom. And a large part of freedom is getting to decide who you work with." — John Kormanik
