“These are lawyers who have the potential to have such a huge positive impact on the world, and instead they keep struggling because their law firm isn’t successful enough.” – RJon Robins, author of Profit First for Lawyers
What do you want from your law firm and your life? Not what you need. Not what you will tolerate. What do you actually want?
This episode will challenge you to think bigger as RJon exposes the “doctrine of sacrifice” which is the perverse pride lawyers take in suffering, working excessive hours, and bragging about how unprofitable their firms are. Through a powerful live-streamed early version of what eventually became the Profit First for Lawyers book, RJon explains why building what you want is actually easier than slogging through what you’ll merely tolerate.
Key Takeaways:
- Your mindset matters more than how hard you work or where you went to law school
- Building a profitable law firm is easier (and more rewarding) than building an unprofitable law firm
- Unprofitable firms force you into decisions you’ll regret (like accepting problem clients)
- Lawyers often compete over who works more hours and has more accounts receivable
RJon’s mission is to liberate entrepreneurial law firm owners from the doctrine of sacrifice so they can do more good in the world. When your firm isn’t profitable enough, it forces compromises that weigh you down. RJon challenges law firm owners to start building the profitable practice that delivers the life you actually want.
