Listen Later

How can you shift from sitting back and letting things unfold to taking charge and guaranteeing success in your practice?


In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael Mogill unpacks how law firm owners can stop relying on fleeting motivation and instead cultivate an unwavering commitment to their vision. Success doesn’t come by accident — it’s built through intentional long-term planning and execution.


Here’s what you’ll take away:

  • How adopting a “Make It Happen” mindset can motivate you by fostering accountability and proactive goal-setting
  • The significance of commitment over motivation, emphasizing the need for consistent effort, clear goal-setting, and strategic planning
  • Why planning ahead enables you to set achievable goals over an extended timescale, allowing for realistic growth and sustainable success

  • By defining clear goals and prioritizing consistent progress, you can escape the chaos of daily demands and focus on sustainable growth strategies. Leaders who foster this mindset empower their teams to execute at a higher level, align their daily actions with their vision, and ultimately transform their firms into market leaders.
