Be a little kinder to yourself. Law school can make it easy to focus on what you haven’t done, what you got wrong, or where you think you should be. Practicing positive, realistic self-talk can help interrupt that cycle. Research on self-compassion suggests that treating yourself with the same kindness and understanding you would offer a friend can support emotional well-being and resilience.
