I’ve submitted a blog entry every single month since I started this in May 2010. I’m a proud public defender since 2013 and do not presently blog to attract to new clients (although that was the original goal back when I was in private practice). I’m just opinionated and enjoy my forum.
I missed Sept last month. Maybe it was buying my first home and moving in. Maybe it was my transfer of job assignment to Platte from Clay (meaning I lost and gained hundreds of clients, it’s a process…). Maybe, it is just hard to stay perfect.
I’m perfect at trial, so far. 3-0, but only 1 being a jury trial. If I want to be the real litigator I must risk that perfect record, every time my client wants a trial. And at some time, I will lose that perfect record. But what are my choices, quit now while I am ahead? Or fight the next fight. I’m not perfect, I can’t even blog every month, much the less win every trial I ever have. My thoughts today: perfection is overrated and unrealistic. And not what I sought out. Win some lose some Fight Fight Fight.
