by Traverse Legal, reviewed by Enrico Schaefer - October 17, 2005 - Alternative Billing, The Billable Hour
The further I get away from the traditional hourly billing model, the more I allow myself to be transformed as a lawyer and as a person. Sometimes, we forget that our choices are much broader than we perceive. Often times, we feel much more constrained than we really are.
As time goes on in my new life, I find myself becoming more relaxed and willing to accept whatever comes my way. I entertain projects that simply make me feel good, even when there is no other reason to pursue it. Although I still have a long way to go, I realize that my decisions are being driven more and more by me, as opposed to circumstances or others. How much in control do you think you are of your own life?
