"The field of law is notorious for causing burn-out and disillusionment, with lawyers ultimately finding a loss of meaning and purpose in their lives. There are currently over 1.1 million lawyers in the U.S., and many attorneys express professional discontent and are seeking solutions. (44% surveyed by the ABA said they would not recommend the profession to a young person. The New York Times, 1/6/08). This 376-page, meditation-a-day book is designed to help lawyers recover from spiritual bankruptcy. Each daily entry includes an introductory quotation, followed by a refection inspired by that quotation. Themes found in the book include overcoming fear, personal beliefs and values, maintaining integrity, personally defining success, dealing with difficult people, and common workplace challenges. This is the only book of it's kind written just for lawyers. Reverse the burnout trend, and discover how easy it is to put energy and enthusiasm back into your career with this once-a-day meditation strategy, you won't be disappointed."--Publisher's website.
