The pattern. . .
If you're seeing a pattern in your law firm of prospective clients who don't hire you even though where they are now is bad, even though they have no way to make things better on their own and even though they acknowledge that things are likely to get worse not better without your help...
Are you a Hunter or a Farmer?
Today the owner of that restaurant let a $10,000 customer walk out the door because of the ego of his or her manager. And what's worse there's no way for that owner to even know where all his or her profits are going? He or she is probably busy blaming "the economy"!
The so-called "competition"
You've seen it over & over & over again... A "new" lawyer comes onto the scene and just kicks-butt...
And all the more "experienced" lawyers, arguably even "better" lawyers are standing-around scratching their heads wondering How This Is Possible?
Thoughts on Staffing a Successful Law Firm
There are several different business models for building a successful law firm. Most of them require some level of legal staff be hired, trained, managed motivated and measured for productivity & profitability.
To say "well I just won't have staff" is like saying you're going to lock yourself in a jail cell and then throw the key through the bars to where you cannot reach it. Even if you change your mind.
Having great staff can be a blessing.
Having less-than-great staff can be a torture.
The power of your big intentions
Tomorrow you're going to wake-up, get dressed, eat some breakfast…
The 2nd time you see someone drop dead...
This is an important message that transcends "just" how to make your law firm better...
What it means to be "stuck"
Why Do You Suppose so many lawyers are in all these videos I keep sharing and why do you suppose they're all saying it's been such an invaluable experience for them when they decided to plant a tree today so they can enjoy a life in the shade not a life being stuck? (Rhetorical question, obviously)
...sooner or later you sleep in your own space.

What are the inevitable consequences of your current growth trajectory?
Hopefully the inevitable consequences are that you're going to be doing GREAT! If that's you I would encourage you to investigate our "Find Your Freedom" coaching program, or even our "Play A Bigger Game" group may be just what you've been looking for.
You can't handle the truth...
Yes my friends, the time is approaching when you're going to have to choose a side...
I'm writing this to you at 36,000 feet jamming out to Led Zeplin IV "Going To California". It's being streamed to me on Pandora via Go-Go-Inflight into my Bose noise-cancelling headphones. We're aboard American Airlines flight 271 enroute to Los Angeles. It's quite surreal. The stewardess just offered us chocolate ice cream.
I'm headed to L.A. with Ale passed-out and in a nearly-fully-recliend position in the window seat beside me.
We're headed West for a meeting with MY OWN COACH.
And in my ongoing effort to assure you that THERE IS PLENTY OF MONEY OUT THERE I'm reporting that yet-again, first class is sold out.
That's 14 seats plus mine & Ale reclined next to me.
I so sincerely wish for each and every one of you, even if we've never met, that you could participate or even just observe a Mastermind with me and come to fully appreciate that it really is your choice whether not you choose to continue participating in the "recession".
