The biggest “complaint” I heard after our Jump Start Legal Marketing Conference last a few weekends ago was, “Ben, you’ve given us so much to do….so many ideas….how will I ever get it all done?”

Today’s Washington Post headline blasts the news that 600,000 more people lost jobs in January. The
Wall Street Journal has a picture of a roomful of white collar workers in a hotel room in McLean, Virginia,
waiting for a job interview.

There has never been a better time in most of our lifetimes to find highly qualified people who are ready, willing and able to help you keep moving. If you are standing still, waiting to be “rescued” from
this recession, you are a fool.

Keep moving.

I came back from my ownconference (the only legal conference, of any sort, that is selling out all of its events) so revved up with ideas I could hardly think. I immediately went on the search to find the quality folks I needed to “get things done.” I’m not sitting still, waiting for rescue.

I hired three new people this week.

Great, smart people. Tired of the corporate world. Looking to use THEIR GIFTS and TALENTS in a
productive way. Not waiting for a bailout.

What are you waiting for?
