just go from Yale Law Journal EIC and SCOTUS clerk to mindset ebook merchant

why would you even strive that hard if you're just going to walk away? law really does attract the most pathetic subset of humanity

Walk away from what, exactly? Arguing over esoteric law bullshit? Worrying about em dashes at 1 AM? Researching 5 more cases to make a point about discovery objections no one will ever read?

The majority of non-aspie lawyers would walk away from law in a minute if they could duplicate their income (or even come close to duplicating their income) selling self help books. Hell, they would walk away from law if they could make $150k selling popsicles.

Are you dumb? Law is objectively shit, but with that pedigree you could find some chill unicorn job that's objectively better than peddling books about "mindfulness" on your personal website with circa 2009 design.

I read one of her books. It was alright, but sort of weird to think that such a breezy self-help book was written by some sort of top legal mind. Puts into perspective how intellectually light most of the field actually is.

Like it's really hard to imagine a promising young economist or philosopher or physicist quitting and writing about how some people are upholders, some are questioners, some are obligers and some are rebels.

Yeah, I mean the book wasn't stupid or anything and it was ultimately pretty good advice, it just didn't feel like something an intense thinker would write.

I saw her speak at a publishing conference once at NYU. I didn't know she was an attorney, but now it makes perfect sense that she writes self-help books. As a Yale Law grad, she knows everything there is to know. She was a smooth talker, and effective at peddling bullshit.
