can you imagine yourself as a third party client?

also letting your office take advantage of you shouldn't be seen as "it's okay if it's me," it should be "it's not okay because my office is taking advantage of someone and I'm allowing it." if it works on you then all the more reason for them to try it on others because it's working

You are right. In the past, I just assumed that I just wasn't good enough an attorney, didn't have the experience, there was no way I could earn more or get a better job. But I've recently got some positive feedback from other attorneys with more experience than me, won some cases, and got told by a bunch of other attorneys that I'm way underpaid. It just never occurred to me before.

I am working on it all. It is just really difficult to overcome years of self worth issues.

i try to view it systemically overall. if i allow myself to be taken advantage of, i'm allowing the system to take advantage of someone. it helps in putting aside insecure thoughts because it doesnt matter then if its me, or if i'm good enough, or other people are better; the system shouldn't be doing that to anyone, period, and it's wrong for it to be. in standing up for yourself you're also standing up for 'to whom it may concern' which is everybody in there with you
