Brian Can Fix It Manhattan Attorney and Weekend Handyman
Beginning a journey toward a healthier, more active lifestyle is commendable; one key to success is a consistent commitment to exercise. Here are five tips to ensure you’re consistent in your journey. 1. SET REALISTIC GOALS Establishing realistic goals is the foundation of a consistent exercise routine. Instead of aiming for dramatic changes overnight, focus on incremental milestones. Celebrate these little wins to foster a sense of achievement that will fuel your motivation to continue. 2. CREATE A SCHEDULE Just as you schedule appointments and meetings, prioritize scheduling your workout sessions. Designate specific days and times for exercise, treating them with the same importance as any other commitment. This structured schedule helps integrate exercise into your routine seamlessly. 3. FIND EXERCISES YOU ENJOY Exercise shouldn’t be a monotonous chore. Exploring various activities to find those you genuinely enjoy will help you remain consistent. Whether it’s rock climbing, hiking, cycling, Zumba, or aerobics, you need to find engaging activities that you love. This will increase the likelihood of long-term commitment as the exercise is something you want to do. 4. ENLIST A WORKOUT BUDDY Journeys are more enjoyable when shared. Find a workout buddy who shares similar fitness goals and schedules. Exercising with a friend will establish accountability and bring a fun social element that encourages staying on track. 5 Tips for Sustaining Your Exercise Routine
Our firm takes pride in its excellent attorneys and team members and want to introduce a litigator who recently joined our staff. A native
New Yorker, Brian Kratenstein started his legal career as a
paralegal in Long Island before his passion for his career inspired him to take the next step and enroll in law school. After graduating from Thomas M. Cooley Law School in Michigan, Brian returned
home to practice law in New York. Brian has been with Cellino Law for over six months and is passionate about his legal career and his hobby of fixing and upgrading every part of his house. Early in his legal career, Brian practiced in the No-Fault insurance litigation field. For 12 years he practiced as a Plaintiff's No-Fault attorney representing the medical providers who treated patients for their injuries from a motor vehicle accident, reviewing and evaluating medical records and billings records. Then Brian switched and started representing the insurance companies for 10 years as a Defendant's No-Fault attorney, reviewing and evaluating the insurance companies independent medical doctors reports generated after IMEs. But after a long career in the No- Fault litigation field, Brian decided it was time for a change. "I decided now would be a good time to branch out into a field of law where I could expand my legal career."” Brian’s extensive experience on both sides of the aisle makes him uniquely suited to personal injury law. “The majority of personal injury is the attorney’s ability to evaluate the injury, to know how an insurance company values an injury — be it a motor vehicle accident or a slip and fall,” Brian explained. Brian loves to work around the house when he's not practicing law. “If I wasn’t a lawyer, I would probably be a handyman,” he said. More than just working around his house, Brian is also willing to help others in need. “Friends call with legal questions and legal advice,” Brian says, “but I’m also the friend people call when they need a tool or need something fixed.” While Brian is comfortable repairing things around the house, he “won’t do anything that requires, or is close to requiring a permit,” he clarifies. “I know my limitations because I stay within the confines of what’s legal, whether it be my hobbies or professional work.” So, whether it’s a legal hiccup or a broken fence, Brian can fix it.
5. BE KIND TO YOURSELF Understand that setbacks are natural. If you miss a workout or face setbacks in your fitness journey, that’s okay! Be kind to yourself and avoid self-criticism to just focus on recommitting to your routine. Consistency is built over time, and resilience is crucial in maintaining it. You can’t be resilient without assuring yourself that you can do it despite the challenges.
