047 Tim Yoo: how to study elite performers to find an edge

Timothy Yoo is a first-chair trial lawyer who treats litigation like sport. Tim models his preparation and execution based on principles elite performers use: Prepare for physiology. Cortisol and adrenaline are part of the job; rehearsal is how you meet the moment. Pre-commit decisions. Use decision trees in outlines so you avoid reactivity under pressure. Credibility is “what + how.” Factfinders and clients read conviction, nuance, and authenticity through delivery. Be a reliable narrator. Your job is to help factfinders see the other side and draw their own conclusions. Treat adversarial as a feature. Opposing counsel is your foil/dance partner, then you shake hands at the net. Bank reps. Variety across matters compounds into mastery for the next big stage.
