One of my friends shared with me a few weeks ago an article about how positivity can, in fact, become and/or be perceived as toxic. It was interesting to explore another perspective, especially that I've always been passionate about how the human mind works. We can't deny the fact that we've found ourselves at least once searching for that right book that will fix us. Maybe lose a few pounds, learn how to become a team player, a better boss or employee, you name it. One of the most helpful and interesting books I've ever read during my time in the start up management was 'Leading with Questions", because one right question equals half of the answer. So, something tells...
Some of you may wonder how do I come up with the topics I write about? I am pleased to share with you, my reader, that each and every word laid down on paper passed through me and I really hope that I can share pieces of my life experiences with you. If you are dreaming about going to Law School then I hope some of my own insight will be of help to you, and if you've been out of Law School for a while, then you will enjoy remembering some of your own experiences. Aside from Medical School, Law School has always had a reputation of its own. First it sounded cool, then it looked very good on...
Some of us enjoy the status quo in our lives and careers, and some of us are in a constant chasing mantra. Some of us do chase things in life, for the sake of chasing, and some of us are looking to make a difference. Those who choose the status quo think that this choice will bring them more peace, long-term security, as if there is such a thing, and maybe some kind of comfort or some of them think that the acceptance of the status quo is a sign of maturity. In this article, I am going to speak to those who consider the possibility of settling for the status quo, but leave some room for change. I am...
Just a year ago, we were talking about how technology has been disrupting the legal industry. I remember attending an international legal tech conference, where passionate legal tech professionals, from around the world, were sharing their view on how technology can improve the legal industry and what can be done better and how? The hot topics of the conference was organized around the open source and artificial intelligence concepts. The future seemed so far. At that time, at least to me, it felt like there were two generations talking about the possibility of meeting somewhere in the future. Just a year later, the world seemed disrupted all together and at the same time. Today, everything and everyone seems to have...
Would really love to hear everyone's feedback on this because this Question didn't let me sleep at night while being in my final year in Law School and even more when I had to face the market. The truth is that, I've never really been a fan of dogmatic trends. Quiet the opposite, I did act against the trends many many times. Some say this may be because I am an Aquarius, but I just think it is how I was wired. Having to attend countless interviews, after graduating, made me realize that getting a job with Big Law or any traditional law firm would bring me back to the past, and all I was interested in was heading towards...
