Gaopeng's philosophy aligns with mine, and every Gaopeng has a ray of light in their hearts

When it comes to the reasons for joining Gaopeng, Lawyer Liu praised Gaopeng for not only being a professional and talented person, but also having an extremely rich inner world.

Devoted to running and fond of the marathon spirit of 'never give up'

Like Lawyer Liu Jie's outgoing and cheerful personality, her leisure life is also 'non-stop'. In the eyes of most people, marathon is a sport that requires people to run 42.195 kilometers within a fixed time period, and it is a sport that only brave people participate in from start to finish. It has to be admitted that not everyone can challenge a marathon.

People who dare to challenge marathons and succeed are truly rare among the billions of people in this world. Lawyer Liu Jie is such a female lawyer who dares to challenge her limits.

Lawyer Liu recently returned from the Wuxi Marathon and was asked about her passion for marathons. She said, "This time, Chinese athletes broke the national record that had been sealed for 15 years, opening a new era of marathons in China. As a mass runner, I have also witnessed this event. This is the charm of marathons, constantly surpassing oneself and challenging limits. This spirit of continuous progress is very important for living a good life and doing a good career. The willpower and endurance honed during the running process have benefited me infinitely in all aspects of life and work

The marathon spirit, never give up, anything is possible. If not, it must be hard work and not enough. "From Lawyer Liu's words, one can feel that running a marathon is a belief, and what a marathon can bring is not just a medal!

Running is a form of practice, and marathons allow me to focus on thinking

For people who don't love running, it feels extremely boring. After a marathon, the time spent on the road can last for several hours, but for Lawyer Liu Jie, it is a spiritual cleansing and enjoyment. Running is the time that truly belongs to oneself. During the mechanical operation of the body, the brain can focus on thinking without being disturbed by the outside world. "Regarding focused thinking, Lawyer Liu Jie believes that" modern people's pace of life is too fast, and various forms of entertainment are too rich. Busy work and life make us rarely have time to focus on thinking. However, thinking is extremely important. People cannot blindly run forward with their heads down all the time. Although we cannot be self disciplined every day, at least we need to be self disciplined every three days. We need to frequently stop and reflect, look up at the road, check and reflect on our own problems, in order to adjust our direction in a timely manner, and make all aspects of life and work more efficient

In the view of Lawyer Liu Jie, running is a form of practice. When you truly find the joy of running, you will find that it is not boring, but rather a pleasure.

Running and work are not in conflict, they bring me career help

Lawyers work tirelessly, and it is common for them to work overtime and stay up late for the sake of their job. Daily running training and participating in marathons nationwide undoubtedly take up a lot of time for lawyers. Lawyer Liu Jie has his own experience on how to coordinate work and running time.

For me, running and work happen to be mutually reinforcing and complementary. While running, I think about work matters, and even the ideas for many major cases are formed during running. It is only during running that my thoughts flow like a spring of water, my inspiration frequently appears, and I return to my computer to write with a spirit, efficiently completing work. After exercising, I feel refreshed, my mind clearer, and my thoughts clearer. I even feel that my luck has improved after running. Therefore, I particularly recommend that everyone give up the ineffective rest of lying flat, watching videos and dramas, and try the relaxation and happiness that exercise brings to people. "While participating in the marathon, there is also an opportunity to expand their legal business," Lawyer Liu Jie added, Through running and participating in marathons, I have made many running friends from all walks of life, all over the world. We can learn a lot from each other, some have become good friends, and some have even become my clients

But do good deeds, don't ask about your future

The life motto of Lawyer Liu Jie is' But do good deeds, don't ask about your future '. She believes that a person should do everything they do seriously, reject clich é s, always be sincere, always have good intentions, fate has its own gifts, and life and career will not be too bad. I think I've been going relatively smoothly all along, probably based on that

In Clausewitz's "On War," it is written that willpower is always a factor, a product of strength. Lawyer Liu Jie's persistent running is even more so! Marathon is to runners what law is to lawyers. The runner brings us confidence, challenge, and perseverance until the last moment, while the lawyer demonstrates to us the courage to be fair, rigorous, and uphold justice. Life is often like rushing on a racecourse, leveling one's heart, measuring the distance, and letting inner perseverance give birth to the greatest strength!
