A brief slide show explaining how my book came to be and the topics it covers. My book -- Bar Exam Mind: A strategy guide for an anxiety free bar exam -- teaches you strategies and techniques to reduce bar exam anxiety, stress and fear. If you want to pass the bar exam, you should spend your time learning the law, not worrying.
3. How do I know?
• I took the Oregon bar exam in 2006.
• I never thought I’d have to take another bar
exam.
• But, life happened, and my family and I moved
back to California.
• Now, I had to take the dreaded California bar
exam.
• I was stressed and afraid of failing.
4. Stress and Fear
• Stress affects memory.
• Chronic stress, like studying for the bar exam,
is bad for health.
• Fear makes us focus on the negative.
• Focusing on the negative is not helpful to
achieving goals.
5. Let me help you.
• After passing the California bar exam, I
realized that the techniques I used to reduce
my stress and fear could help others.
• I started a blog.
• Then, I wrote an e-book.
• Here is what one person said about the book
in an email --
6. I purchased your book and read it last night. I
already feel relief. I am starting to employ
some of your techniques starting today and I
am very excited and motivated to get my
mind back on track. I just thought you might
enjoy hearing how your efforts are truly
appreciated. Thank you!
