The Paper Chase: A Survival Guide By Philip Wik Kindle Edition Memoir The Paper Chase: A Survival Guide The title of this book is an homage to The Paper Chase, the 1970 novel by John Jay Osborn, Jr. It was later adapted into a movie and a television series of the same name.The Paper Chase portrays James T. Hart, an anxious first year law school student from the Midwest who along with other brilliant students is determined to chase paper— a grade and all that it means for his sense of worth and his future. But the process of learning how to think like a lawyer, the movie suggests, is largely a process of subtraction. As Susan Fields, Kingsfields daughter and Harts girlfriend, They finally got you, Hart, they sucked all that Midwestern charm right out of you. Look, hes got you scared to death. Youre going to pass, because youre the kind the law school wants. Youll get your little diploma. Your piece of paper thats no different than this (toilet paper roll) and you can stick it in your silver box with all the other paper in your life. Your birth certificate, drivers license, marriage license, your stock certificates, and your will. I wish you would flunk. There might be some hope for you.I’ll show you how to get an A in organic chemistry. But then I’ll ask the daring Does it matter if you get an A or an F in bio chem? Just as success has its own risks, so too does failure have its own rewards. The paper chase and the money chase sometimes isn’t worth their real costs. The Paper Chase shows how to navigate between the twin perils of success and failure in school and beyond. The papers we chase, such as references, degrees, and certifications, are meaningful in how they can open doors for us and meaningless in how they define us as humans and as citizens. This is a how to book— how to get good grades, how to build wealth, how to be healthy, and how to navigate life. But its also a book on how to accept our limitations and find love, balance, wisdom, self acceptance, and meaning in our life as well.CONTENTSChapter Success and Failure Chapter The Start of the Chase Chapter The Education Chase Chapter The Job Chase Chapter The Money Chase Chapter The Health Chase Chapter The Meaning of the Chase
