| ADDITIONAL BENEFITS: |
"Pursuing Vision to Reduce Stress"
The Dynamic-Action technique counterbalances stress utilizing Attorney Strength!
This invigorating technique
pursues "vision" to reduce stress...
analagous to pursuing your Bucket List but from a position of strength.
Greater Profits!
Less stress means greater quantity & quality of work product!
Implemented from Strength!
Dynamic-Action is an innovative technique utilizing the dynamism of attorneys.
Two elements: (1)
The dynamic nature of attorneys, and
(2) the element of action, i.e., the pursuit of vision.
The entire technique is implemented with a net-zero expenditure of time.
| THE PROGRAM PAYS FOR ITSELF |
A Personal Story.
During the seminar one of the attorneys shared a personal story regarding the “impact” of excess stress in his law practice. Periodically, he experiences days when he feels so stressed-out that he will go into his office and close the door and tell his secretary to put all his calls into voice mail. He refers to this situation as a sort of catatonia. He emphasizes the fact that he’ll get virtually nothing done on that day. It amounts to an entire day of lost billable hours.
Here’s the Program-Pays-for-Itself rationale. Using a typical hourly rate, the lost revenue of the above scenario is significant. If the Dynamic-Action Seminar breathes life into just a single half-hour, even if it's simply a dose of humor and camaraderie, and transforms it into a productive half-hour, then the program has more than paid for itself. All future saved hours are pure profit!
Sample each chapter of all three audio-disks below at, “Sample All Disks & Chapters,” and get a sense for the significant issues, camaraderie, and expertise of the participating lawyers.
| MOST CLE IS MONOTONOUS |
The Good News: Many CLE bundles are cheap and designed to be filler. CLE-bundles fill-up CLE requirements while preserving CLE budgets to invest in the seminars we want and need.
The Bad News: Most CLE is monotonous due to dry lecturing and teaching formats. Typical CLE-bundles contain one or two relevant or mildly relevant programs and the balance is tangential. That’s why CLE-bundles are so cheap.
| PREMISE OF DYNAMIC-ACTION |
Lawyers are known for their creativity and visionary perspective. Reducing Attorney Stress with Dynamic-Action is based on the premise that it is always better to self-medicate attorney-stress with inspired action rather than self-medicating with excess alcohol, pharmaceuticals, illegal drugs, excess gambling, and other negative stress management behaviors.
| CONTINUING LEGAL EDUCATION |
CLE is an important component and provides a vast array of information, practice techniques, and warning signs of potential errors and omissions.
Most lawyers agree that practicing law today is more stressful than ever before. It is imperative to the health and happiness of our profession that we deal with stress in an effective manner.
