Stoicism and How to Reduce Anxiety in Your Day to Day Living
|
|
Years ago, I practiced criminal defense law. Early in my career I represented a young teenage client who was charged with eight serious offenses. If convicted he could have gone to prison for several years. My client elected to exercise his right to a jury trial.
Most trial attorneys will tell you that the most anxious moments of the trial are not during the legal proceedings itself, but stem from the time the jury leaves to start its deliberations and the moment the clerk of the court reads the verdict.

Talk the Walk:

|
|
