I need more than knowing the law to pass the bar test. There is a big psychological factor in passing. In order to pass the attorney exam it is necessary to understand the law. You must study effectively and concentrate completely and you need to make this go ahead of all other goals and distractions. Also, it is necessary to match the internal state that matches to achieve this goal.
If you failed the bar exam, but you pass the practice bar exam, your problem is psychological. If you can pass the practice exam, you can know the appropriate law to pass the lawyer exam. Something worked inside you, you have passed through. These psychological barriers are unconscious and can only be evaluated by trained professionals. Usually, in the first session with my bar exam client, I am evaluating how successful applicants in this exam supports unconscious mind. Even those who failed dozens of times, I found some similar patterns among people who failed so far, over many years of success to pass the exams of lawyers.
People who did not pass the attorney exams have some common psychological barriers I have seen. One of the most common subjects is the question of identity. This is a common problem for students of other occupations. Being a professional after many years of studies is a big change in identity. The problem of identity is particularly common among attorneys clients I experienced, as legal professionals have this bad reputation in this way. Many people have a negative relationship with the image of a lawyer and are afraid to become a negative stereotype deeply. Some people are not worried about becoming bad people, but I do not want to relate to occupations that I think there are bad people. These concerns are powerful enough to prevent many people I have passed from passing the attorney exam.
Another common concern that is partly a matter of identity, but often more than that, is concern about the impact of significant revenue growth. Many people are hesitant to earn more income than parents and brothers, for example. Does the increase in income separate them from family and friends? There were three lawyers a few months ago, but when I purchased a big house, I was worried that my mother and law - in - law would move together. Fortunately, we can find other ways to solve this shortcoming.
There are other problems among people who fail the lawyer exam. Question about writing to create some of the deepest blocks and it is most difficult to change often. The problem surrounding pride is also very limited. Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) and Thought Pattern Management (TPM) have excellent tools to solve problems and problems with respect to self-esteem, regardless of how hard you try to achieve it I will.
My research using NLP, TPM, hypnosis cooperates with clients to discover what is blocked and what internal resources are missing. With NLP and TPM, there is a huge toolbox to solve the problems and limitations people face. A successful combination of full psychological agreement and a comprehensive and reasonable internal state combined approach and a sufficient time for studying, living management, and preparation are all necessary. Some clients are weak to me in all of these areas and others need help in certain ways to ensure success.
I have helped many, many people pass lawyer exams, each requiring a different kind of aid. After the first session, the exact needs of people is clear to me. Typically, four sessions are sufficient to cover issues directly related to bar tests. There are often other problems that bar tests are not related to generally interfering with success. I am trying to temporarily avoid these problems in order to pass the bar test all the time. It is common for clients to come back after the exam and tackle these other problems. Just by passing the bar test, unless there is a way around, we recommend that you concentrate rather than trying to solve serious personal problems not related to the test. If you already use professional assistance to deal with personal or emotional problems in your life, such as coaching or psychotherapy, you may have problems that may affect your success while preparing the bar We recommend you to concentrate. After the exam returns to other problems.
In order to pass the attorney exam, it is not necessary to obtain all answers. The escape from perfectionist works to feel you are embarrassed and humiliation if you fail. Perfectionism and procrastination are sometimes two aspects of the same coin, a common barrier to success. These are common problems that many clients come to help me.
The fear of failure and the fear of success are common barriers, often the same problem for people. I do not want to change the way you wear clothes (do you know lawyers working in jeans or tee shirts?) I do not want to stand up in front of people in the courtroom (we can also deal with it in NLP , You can decide not to enforce that kind of law), I am afraid of being a con artist and I do not have time for my family and friends. If you have a successful career, you can take lots of wonderful vacations. Families (Do you know children and lawyers? - in most cases) ... This is some question that arises to solve.
In some cases, as a result of growing up with dysfunctional families, I am working with clients who have deep emotional baggage. Everyone hurts, there are problems and work. Some people are more injured than others. In the face of challenges like a bar test, there is a possibility that the previously buried problem can be caused. Unresolved old summary problems can also occur unexpectedly. If you are experiencing these problems, please help with the help of an NLP practitioner or a trained professional. I will find a way to place them temporarily if possible, but it does it in a healthy way. Please be careful not to adopt unhealthy customs at this time that may become a serious problem later. Statistics on alcoholism among critical claimants I have been told. Also be careful with addictive substances such as sugar, please do not become a new barrier to pass the exam. If you eat sugar or crash without using sugar, it is difficult to concentrate. We will do everything you know to stay as healthy as possible. It will be refunded before, during and after the test.
If you failed the bar test and are ready to take it again, we recommend that you tell the few people that you are taking it as much as possible. If you can limit this information only to your spouse, this is desirable. Feeling to drop people in case you fail will cause you to fail! It's like having a committee around you in the lab. You can humiliate those who ask you later about it, and stress increases while waiting for the results. If you do not have it, please do it for yourself for the first time.
Do not try to do this yourself. I get help. Have your family and friends help you study and train. Please take a bar review course or a learning course. You deal with stress and hire professionals to maintain a positive attitude like coaches, practitioners or therapists in NLP. If the winning team gets the support around you, shares the load and encourages you, the chances of success will improve greatly.
Every time you take a bar test, you can pass. If you keep taking it, you will pass. Previous exams are part of the learning and growth process. This is the last step that will guide you towards everything you worked hard. Collect your resources and turn to the awards. There is something necessary to pass the bar test.
