Her parents told her that she can be only a "doctor, engineer or lawyer"? She definitely has Indian parents who are first generation immigrants. I can bet on it.
Her best point was the last one, around 8-9 minutes. Those going to law school greatly underestimate how damaging it is to work in a job you hate and is soul-crushing. While you're working hard to fulfill the dreams of others and lining their pockets, life has passed you by. I've always been very realistic and certainly have never been rich, but I will still say there's a lot of merit in doing work that you truly care about it. Lawyers are paper-pushers and as such there's rarely any emotional attachment to our work; while others dream big we keep pushing precedent and bygone rules. My perception may be wrong, and while Sabrina seems content, she's similar to how many lawyers are: no passion or enthusiasm when they talk about their work. Compare this to people who actually create something-- tangible or otherwise--and have followed their dreams, and notice the difference. Years in the legal field and I finally choose the latter.
I agree so much with you on that one. After having studied Law for 4 years (getting my LLB and working as a Paralegal in a law firm while doing my Masters), I realized I was not passionate by it, nor were the lawyers surrounding me every day. I had this utopic vision of the justice system where lawyers were the saviors of human's fate and not just paper-pushers, as you very wisely put it. So now I am changing my career path and going into something completely different, which will probably make less money, but won't make me feel miserable. Props to you for sharing your experience :)
Hi pls help me make me figure out.. I really liked your ideology. I am at crossroads in my life. I like teaching but it is not very reputated or good moneytarily and i am doing llb but i have no interest in politics, giving opinions on everything or speaking publicly.Should I do llb and then if I dont like it should I do teaching. Please help
Ruchika Soin I know you didn't ask me specifically, but it seems to me you already answered your question. You want to be a teacher but want a nice status and the money. Instead, you are going to do something you don't like. However I do believe that you will be miserable if continue down the path you are leading.
Diese Videos sind absolut großartig, weil sie mir geholfen, mich gestärkt und motiviert haben, mir das perfekte Abschlussgespräch zwischen mir und meinem (damaligen) zukünftigen Arbeitgeber vorzustellen. Alles, was ich mir vorstellte, manifestierte sich nicht nur ERFOLGREICH in der Besprechung, sondern ich war ABSOLUT ERFOLGREICH darin, die perfekten Arbeitsergebnisse zu schaffen, indem ich die meisten Komplimente/Lob bekam und die wenigsten Fehler machte!
after seeeing this interview we can not say it that she choose to become a co orporate lawyer by family preassure .........she choose it because she lke to talk the pepole and to argument
Ok, got it...look outside the traditional career box and go after what makes you happy and not so much the money, ivy league, advanced degree...but look at those happy in their careers as guidance. Hmmmm
corporate lawyers start off making 100k lol, with experience they can easily make over 1 million per year, especially if you are managing partner or a senior.
