How can prioritizing your health become the cornerstone of not only your personal well-being but also the success of your business?
In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael Mogill explores the harmonious balance between personal health and business leadership.
Here’s what you’ll take away:
- The importance of reflecting on past experiences to learn and grow, equipping you with resilience to navigate an unpredictable future.
- How prioritizing health can enhance your decision-making and energy levels, ultimately contributing to the sustainable growth of your law firm.
- Strategies for setting and achieving health goals through routine, discipline, and accountability — principles that are equally effective in business operations.
Prioritizing your health doesn’t mean you have to hit pause on business growth — it’s about leveraging small, consistent actions to create massive, compounding results. Whether you’re leading your team, managing your firm, or scaling to the next level, it’s crucial to integrate wellness into your lifestyle so that your energy and focus are at their peak.

Show Notes:
Reflect and learn. “As the year comes to a close, it’s a prime time for reflection. Law firm owners should consider jotting down lessons learned throughout the year to avoid repeating mistakes. Ask yourself, if you could start the year over with today’s knowledge, what advice would you give yourself? ‘Brace yourself’ might be the best advice, as the future is unpredictable, and resilience is key.”
Community and resilience. “Understanding you’re not alone in facing challenges is crucial. Lean on the power of community. Many law firm owners have had a tough year, whether due to personal or professional difficulties. Yet, as we’ve learned, what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger, and lessons from those challenges are essential for personal and business growth.”
Your health is your foundation. “Feeling guilty about prioritizing your health when balancing firm responsibilities? Consider the downside of not focusing on health — losing it could be a greater risk than business setbacks. Investing in health means being in peak state to make better business decisions. Remember, sustaining your energy and focus is key to long-term business success, and personal health is foundational to this.”
Routine and discipline. “We’re emphasizing the basics: rest, nourishment, and movement. Consistency in sleep, eating whole, nutritious foods, and regular exercise form the foundation. These fundamentals translate into improved energy and better decision-making, crucial for maintaining the momentum needed to grow a thriving law firm.”
Commit to your health goals. “Overcoming the overwhelm of embarking on a health journey starts with commitment. Track progress just as you would business KPIs and make goals public to stay accountable. The journey is about incremental improvements through consistent routines. Law firm owners can apply these principles both personally and within their business operations for transformative results.”
If not now, when? “Procrastination is the enemy of progress. Whether focusing on health or business goals, start now. Perfection isn’t necessary to begin. Small steps today, such as a short walk or healthy meal choice, pave the path for significant transformations tomorrow. Remember, time is of the essence, and waiting only delays the results you aspire to achieve.”
