In this episode, host Greg McCollum confronts the critical moment every law firm owner faces: did you seize your opportunity, or did you miss the starting gun? Drawing inspiration from Pink Floyd’s classic song Time, Greg underscores how intention and belief shape the trajectory of a criminal defense practice.
Greg shares candid reflections on overcoming rejection and the importance of refusing to settle for life and success by happenstance rather than by design and intention. You will discover why having a clear vision—and the tenacity to move toward it—can make the difference between stagnation and a million-dollar firm.
For lawyers who feel late to the race or that they’re still waiting on the sidelines, this episode is a reminder that it’s never too late to take control and offers a serious call to start moving toward your goals and create the success you want in your practice and life with real, lasting growth.
