The following is a guest blog post previously posted on the CEB blog in May 2018 by Ritu Goswamy, Esq. Ritu is a lawyer, author, and legal productivity consultant. Her New Billable Hourâ„¢ system allows lawyers to expand their time by billing themselves first.

When we are in control, the "spinning out" lessens and our focus deepens.
