For the past few years, your focus has been on finishing law school, walking across the stage at commencement, and taking then passing the bar exam. Well, you have finished law school, you may have walked across the stage at graduation, you took or are almost done with the bar exam, now what’s next? You may be a planner and have a perfect plan for the days, weeks, and months ahead. For others, your next steps involve visiting your law school's career services office or referencing communication they may have shared with you.
All in all, take the time to appreciate and enjoy your accomplishments, get some rest, and dream big about the journey and adventures ahead of you. It is no small feat to attend law school, complete law school, graduate from law school, prepare for the bar exam, show up for the bar exam, and complete the bar exam. You did all of that! Not everyone can accomplish what you have accomplished and not everyone who started the journey completed it. Take pride in your accomplishment. (Goldie Pritchard)
