[QUOTE="Dheepa, post: 87657, member: 1572"] So this is a bit of a personal one, but I invested in speaking to someone about effectively managing stress, anxiety, feelings of not being good enough etc. My reasoning was I’m walking into a career filled to the brim with overachievers and hyper competitiveness - how do I stop that from getting to me and keep being focused on being the best lawyer/trainee I can be? It’s proving to be a very worthwhile investment both personally and professionally (even within my current job) so far! I also met someone (going into second year PQE) very recently who said something like “BigLaw truncates your personality” (obviously just his opinion) and it got me thinking about really cultivating a creative outlet that I can stick to even once I start work. So maybe explore that too? [/QUOTE]
