If you're good. Yes. if you can't win a case to save your mothers life. No. Being a lawyer is like being a musician or a chef. If it is in you it will just come naturally after a while. If you want to be a lawyer you must understand the risk of commitment. If that is the goal then you must put all your energy and thought into it. Then you must ride it out until the end. I have confidence that if becoming a lawyer is worth it to you, then it will be "worth it" in the end. If you are not fully prepared and willing to give your body, mind and soul to the trade, then it will not be "worth it".

Take your time. Be patient. It will come to you if you meet it half way. Many people think this is just cliche and simple common sense. That is fine. Just answer this. How many people around you with so much so called "common sense" understand this? People who have been educated in some way shape or form understand this to be common sense, but not everyone is educated enough to think about their future in this way. As a plan that is slow moving but powerful in many ways.

So is it worth it to be a lawyer? If you are ready to commit to that profession then, it's up to you.
