Monday Morning Message 12.5.22 Pressure is a Privilege

“Pressure is a privilege - it only comes to those who earn it.” – Billie Jean King

“Nothing is given. Everything is earned.” ― LeBron James

"I run on the road long before I dance under the lights." - Muhammad Ali

This morning’s message is to our students, particularly our first-year students.

Final exams begin Thursday and continue until December 21. 

My advice is to change the way you look at the pressure of final exams. 

Look at the pressure as a privilege that you have earned. 

You have chosen to study and work during this time of your life like most people won’t, so that you can learn law and live justice like most people can’t.

Monday Morning Message 11.7.22 Effort Counts Twice

“As much as talent counts, effort counts twice.” ― Angela Duckworth  

“It always seems impossible until it’s done.”  -Nelson Mandela 

This morning’s message is to our students, especially our first year students.

It is all too easy to slow down in November. The days become shorter, the nights become longer.

Whether it is because of the anticipation of the coming holidays and a much-deserved break, or, more likely, from fatigue or burnout after a long semester, November is the month to persevere.
