David, I’m always happy to talk with prospective law students. That’s one reason I started Legal Andrew – to help connect with other people. I’ll email you. Thanks for your comment! Andrew

Andrew, congratulations on getting out of law school and conquering the bar. I’m a third year at the University of Florida, and I’m interested in Virginia. I have a few questions for you — would you mind sending me an e-mail? Thanks.

Hi Anastasia,

Thanks for the book recommendation. I will put that on my “to read” list. I can use all the help I can get.

Congrats on getting done with the bar!
There is a book titled “The First 90 days” by Michael Watkins. It talks about how to transition into new positions successfully. It targets mostly business leaders but it has some good career planning ideas and strategies.

Hi everyone – Thanks for your kind words and advice.

I definitely plan to play hard, now that school is over with. I’ll finally have time to get some real cycling in! Although I first have to get us moved for my new job. That sucks.

I don’t have any tips for you. Well, I do, but I’m cynical and jaded so they wouldn’t be *good* for you.

Congratulations on the bar exam!

My number one piece of advice is this: Work hard, but play harder. I’ve never seen a headstone that said “I wish I would have spent more time working and less time playing.” It does get boring at times sitting in the same office every day. It is what you do away from work that makes it manageable from both physical and mental standpoints. Corporate jobs require 40 hours per week, so don’t spend 40 more hours every week worrying about them. Spend time with your family. Work on your hobbies. Read something that has nothing to do with your job. Go outside. The answers to your work problems will come when you least expect them – not when you’re sitting at home worrying about them constantly.
