Most attorneys don’t lack ambition. They’re drowning in small, unresolved issues that quietly drain their energy, focus, and peace of mind.
The overflowing inbox. The postponed difficult conversation. The underperforming team member. The health goals that never happen. Individually they seem minor, but together they create constant overwhelm.
In this episode of Great Practice, Great Life, Steve Riley talks with Mark Powers, founder of Atticus, about a powerful yet simple solution: eliminating your “tolerations.” Discover why overwhelm comes less from having too much to do and more from tolerating things below your standards, and learn practical ways to remove hidden drains so you can regain clarity, energy, and control.
If you’re a driven attorney who feels stuck or overwhelmed despite working hard, this episode shows you how removing what’s draining you is often the fastest path to a great practice and a great life.
