Lawyers don't understand what marketing even is. Marketing is all outbound communications that you make. That email to opposing counsel - that's marketing.

The best AI applications for lawyers touch things they do the most. AI is great at summarizing, transcribing, and billing for meetings and calls. Frees up so much time at low cost.

Good morning to all those who will spin a vinyl today.

Good night to all those who tried something new this week.

The very best lawyers are lifelong learners. Always getting better.

"God will bring into judgment both the righteous and the wicked, for there will be a time for every activity, a time to judge every deed." - Ecclesiastes 3:17

Personal injury law firms spend billions on billboards. None are as good as the ever changing signs on the side of Antonio's restaurant in Simsbury, CT.

"Civility is the mark of an accomplished and educated person." - Justice Anthony Kennedy

Lawyers, expecting your team to just "handle it" is an exercise in frustration for all.

Law firm culture beats everything else. And culture is a shadow of firm leaders.

Pro traveler tip: when you learn you are coming back a day later than you thought….the hotel sink, bath soap, and blow drier are your friends. A laundromat hidden in plain sight.

Law school teaches lawyers that they have to be the best at everything. That's impossible. You can have a great career if you are good at one thing and find people who compliment your skills.

Most lawyers overestimate what they can do in a day. If you can get one bigger project advanced each day you will have a great year.

Good morning to teachers. You touch the future.

Good night to all prior “special envoys for the Shield of the Americas.” All zero of you.

"Good will come to those who are generous and lend freely, who conduct their affairs with justice. Surely the righteous will never be shaken; they will be remembered forever."- Psalm 112:5–6

Just realized today is Thursday. When I posted “Happy Wu Wednesday” and got a DM from a friend “Ryan it’s Thursday”.

How’s your week going? 🤣

There’s a big difference between losing and letting go….when we let go of the things that no longer serve us…we open ourselves to possibility.

This is a beautiful post that someone out there needs to read today:

“If you want to accept the promise of the mountain, you have to be willing to accept what comes after. The passion.”

Values are principles you hold to when doing so costs you money.

The thing I’ve learned, is most people, value money above all else.

The best prepared lawyer usually wins the case. Victory loves preparation.

The very best lawyers outwork everyone else.

Orange and chocolate is underrated. Orange lattes are WAY underrated. 10/10 recommend.

Lawyers should lead with curiosity. When you ask "why is this happening" it opens many doors. When we lead with ego and judgment shuts down opportunity .

Talent density is a real issue for law firms. Losing key people can hurt. The financials make it hard to have a bench. This is the reality firms face.

The very best leaders in legal see where whatever they are doing is heading and play to that point. They aren't stuck on where things are.

The best teachers in legal share openly and honestly. They talk as honestly about their losses as they do their wins. We are all better for these lawyers.

Good night to all of those who seek understanding first.

Cartoon Marisa got a Para Era glow up with Nano 🍌2. See the difference below.

Nano Banana is really great for lawyers. For everything from marketing, to exhibits, and infographics.

10/10

Want to know how hard winter in Connecticut beats you down? I just looked out the window and thought "wow it's really light out for 5:15 pm".
