Is there any more powerful motivator than the belief that what you’re doing could make a difference to people you care about?
I know that many lawyers are able to work punishing hours on all sorts of matters they don’t personally connect with - whether motivated by financial gain, firm expectations, or just a sense of professional obligation. But there’s no doubt that it’s much easier when
you’re doing something meaningful, even if it’s something you don’t always enjoy.
