Coming off last week’s discussion about work-life balance, the hosts talk about finding “joy” or “enjoyment” in the practice of law. One of the principles that Reboot Your Law Practice has focused on is trying to find a niche area of practice that you love or which greatly interests you, and targeting your reboot in that area. The hosts discuss an article written by Linda K. Robertson for Slaw, an online magazine which was entitled “Practicing Law with Joy.” Ms. Robertson notes that the top five criteria for happiness at work (not just for lawyers but for workers generally) are autonomy, respect, the belief that your work is important, opportunities for growth and appreciation. Money does not appear in the top criteria. Scott and Oscar then discuss how to focus your efforts into those five categories and you will find that the money will come. Not only that, but if you move your practice into an area that you are deeply interested in and love to do, the benefits to your personal motivation and – yes “Joy” will be enormous. Through personal anecdotes and examples, the hosts offer ways to think about your practice and move in a joyful and meaningful direction.
