It's not the billable hours that cause lawyers stress. Not technically.
Yes, billable requirements are absolutely insane. Yes, they are a primary source of stress in a lawyer's life.
The real issue, however, is underneath the number. It's not the number that's required. It's what that number means to you.
Billables and the associated stress means something different to each person. For one person, billables mean that they've lost control of their lives. For another, billables represent loss of family time. For the next, the problem is that billables represent an overwhelmingly negative view of the future.
To get control of your life, you have to understand the underlying issue. And that underlying issue is individual to each person.
