It is six o'clock. The work you planned to do this morning is still sitting there. Untouched.

In this episode I cover the Introduction of Time Management for Attorneys by Mark Powers and Shawn McNalis. The authors establish the framework at the heart of the entire book: there are two kinds of attorneys. Those who react to their day. And those who design it.

I walk through the reactive style checklist, the three root causes of reactive behavior that Powers and McNalis identify, which are time, money, and energy, and what the proactive attorney actually looks like in practice. I also share where I personally landed on the reactive scale, the Friday afternoon planning habit that has changed how I approach my week, and what happens when I skip it.
