The whole interview was good, but I especially agree with answer 2 & 3 to a question about advice for law students: 1. Be yourself. “Be yourself” is a cliche, I know, but lots of lawyers have this herd mentality. We should be creating our own unique brand and identity, but instead we carbon copy what everyone else does. Don’t be like every other lawyer. Figure out what makes you unique, what makes you shine, and capitalize on that. 2. Write. A lot. Your words are the most powerful tool you have. Practice. Often. 3. Be patient. There are no short-cuts. Be excellent. Do your best and success will eventually follow. 4. Pay off your student loans as quickly as possible. 5. Save. I wish I started saving in my twenties and paid more on my student loans instead of upgrading my lifestyle. Save early and save consistently. Let the magic of compound interest work for you. lawyerist/interview-with-jeena-cho/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+solosmalltech+%28Lawyerist%29
