Insider Tip: Holiday break = recharge time.

Challenge Yourself: Have you hit full-on Netflix-hibernation mode on the couch yet? Bonus points if it lasts a whole day.

Happy New Year, Insiders!

Just popping in to say: I’m really glad you’re here.

Another year in the books—complete with cold calls, curveballs, late nights, LinkedIn spirals, quiet doubts, small wins, and hopefully at least one moment where you thought, â€œI've got this law school thing.”

You did.

And that matters.

Even as an eternal optimist, I’m not big on dramatic “new year, new you” energy. I am big on momentum—noticing what worked in the fall, dropping what didn’t, and showing up this spring with a little more confidence because you’ve already proven you can do hard things.

In 2026, I promise to keep sharing the honest stuff—the things no one really explains about law school, legal careers, the practice, and figuring it out as you go (usually with caffeine!).

I’m also excited to introduce a new format of The Law School Operating System™. Until now, it’s been available as a recorded course ($199) or a live 1:1 option ($599). Starting in 2026, I’ll be adding a small-group version for $399—open to all law students at any school—meeting on the first Saturday of every month from 9am–1pm PST. 

More details on that soon!

Thank you again for being part of this space. I truly appreciate you.

Sending you my best, always,
Lisa Blasser


That's all for this week, thanks for being a part of my community!  


Crush law school in 2026! 

 

Are You Outlining Against Your Brain?
Insider Tip: The way you think shapes the way you outline. Challenge Yourself: Take the quiz below to identify whether you’re a big-picture or detail-oriented thinker, and use that self-awareness to outline more efficiently. Have you ever tried outlining a certain way just because other students were doing it? That’s totally normal—everyone does that at some point, trying to figure it out. Bu...
Crush Multiple-Choice Exams in Law School
Insider Tip: Success on multiple-choice exams isn’t just about memorizing rules—it’s about mastering the nuances and spotting the subtle difference between an almost right answer and the exactly right one. Challenge Yourself: Set a goal for how many multiple-choice questions you’ll complete before midterms in each subject. Then go one level deeper—review every miss. Understanding why you got a...
Struggling Law Students Don't Do These Things in Law School
Insider Tip: Academic struggles can be overcome by changing the way you organize, learn, and practice writing every topic before exams.   Challenge Yourself: Instead of just working harder, is there something you haven’t tried yet that could make things click?  We all struggle to learn in law school at some point. The difference between students who struggle and those who seem to "just get it...
