Invest in a better memory. You have invested years in becoming an attorney and you invest months preparing a case. Invest one afternoon to strengthen your mind and achieve these goals: Think quickly and clearly without fumbling for notes? Remember important information about your case and use it to win cases? Effectively recall facts and figures from research and interview to argue cases. As attorneys we seldom leave home without our computers, Blackberries and calculators. They are convenient, affordable, and most of all, come with a lot of memory. Unfortunately, one of the most powerful memory tools we own is seldom plugged in and often fails us. Brain freeze? Memory lapse? Senior moments? Whatever you want to call it, thousands of attorneys have experienced it. The good news? You can do something about it.
