Donna has come to motivate:
‘If a person waits for perfect weather, he will never plant his seeds. And if he is afraid that every cloud will bring rain, he will never harvest his crops. You don’t know where the wind will blow.’ (credits to the Bible xx)
You truly never know!! Like you said, do it unmotivated - every step is a step closer in the grand scheme of things x
No because you just motivated me to read my compilation of motivational Bible quotes and drag myself back to applications 😭

    does anyone have any ideas on how to show an interest in finance/PE related law since so many firms specialise in this? i mean apart from attending open days and hearing people talk about it. like more concrete things that show you might enjoy that type of law?
