MOTIVATING TECHNIQUES FOR THE LAWYERS ( WHY LAWYERS SHOULD SURF ) ( IN GOOD CONDITION )

Oftentimes, even lawyers need motivating, and the best motivation is self-motivation. With the metaphor of surfing and the ocean flowing throughout, the authors have drawn on their collective experience and brought together not only some powerful psychological tools, but a beautiful collection of ideas and images which will continue to inspire long after the first reading. The first section of this book deals with the power of the mind and examines visualizations, underlying beliefs, and one’s own internal language. The book then goes on to examine communication skills ranging from the building of rapport and body language to advocacy techniques. This is followed by a section on goal setting, values, and ways in which positive changes can be made fast and effectively in all areas of one’s life. Finally, there is a section on work/life balance, focusing on various aspects of health and leisure.
