Summary
If you're like most trial attorneys I work with, you've probably told yourself, "I just need to prepare more." Preparation matters, but what if the thing that's actually missing isn't another hour at your desk? What if it's play? In this week's podcast, I talk about why creativity doesn't come from grinding harder. I share why: Trying to be "100% prepared" often leads to burnout, not better performance Working in focused blocks with intentional breaks helps your brain perform at its best Simple, playful activities can unlock creativity when you feel stuck The attorneys who stand out aren't just well prepared, they're creative If you've been feeling overwhelmed, mentally blocked, or like you're working harder without getting better results, I think this conversation will resonate. Give it a listen, and then ask yourself one question: When was the last time you intentionally made space for play? Love, Kevin Quote: "Don't get me wrong, preparation's important. But what if your preparation was more playful? What if your preparation was more playful and it fueled creativity in your work? That's what we want to get to. Being able to get on your feet, be playful, and get creative while you're preparing." Coach K Can't get enough of me?
