The Passion Drives the Work Ethic Nov 19, 2022

Show notes

When you have a career driven competitor with a creative side, it would be easy to assume they would have to choose one part of themselves over the other. But if you are passionate about fulfilling both your career and your creative side, you find a way to do the work towards both.
Lawyer and Novelist, Andy Abramowitz joins Career Competitor to discuss his career as an attorney with 20+ years of experience in complex litigation, currently as Senior Counsel with Berger Montague, while also discussing his work over the past decade as a critically acclaimed author.
While pursuing an all-encompassing career in law it became clear to Andy that there was a creative side to him he knew he simply had to find a way to satisfy, despite knowing it would be hard work. But what you will come to learn through our discussion is that there are ways to approach and handle the work so as to learn what you can handle and how you can improve.
Andy and I cover key topics including:

Knowing the roadmap that you need to work towards a new skill or talent
Having an awareness of who you are surrounding yourself with
Listening to yourself in order to identify your limitations
Connecting enough to your passions so the hard work becomes easy

You can find all of Andy's literary work by going to his author page on Amazon here and find his select work by using the following links:
