[quote=Anonymous]The biggest key for me was learning not to get stressed out about things I can't control. You can't control the facts of the case, you can't control opposing counsel's behavior, you can't control your bosses' behavior, and you can't control the court. Learn to delegate what's appropriate to delegate. (No, you shouldn't be cite-checking your own briefs, as someone earlier suggested. That's what a paralegal is for.) You have paralegals, you have interns. Let them do their job, so you can focus on what you're supposed to be doing. Find the areas of the law you enjoy. If you just like writing briefs, why not focus more on administrative law or record-review cases?[/quote]
