Learning to think clearly and logically is required to succeed in any profession or occupation.  It is essential when applying legal knowledge to real-world matters.  One must learn to be objective and to observe, listen, evaluate, analyze, write, summarize, and present.

Law is about life; it is multidisciplinary! 

The application of legal knowledge involves a combination of experience, wisdom, psychology, human nature, human behavior, business, and principles of law.

First, one must learn to think clearly, that is, analyze, evaluate, identify facts, and arguments on both sides of an issue. 

Second, "thinking like a lawyer" is nothing more than thinking clearly. There is either clear thinking or muddled thinking!  The goal:  logical thinking, internal consistency in one's evaluation of the facts and issues, and accuracy in thought and presentation.  Successful people in all fields of endeavor have mastered the art of clear thinking!

Third, legal education teaches substantive law.  In a broad sense it is the study of the history of ideas, societal norms, practices and procedures of people, institutions, and government.  The study of law touches every aspect of life and human experience.  Study of the law is a multi-disciplinary endeavor.
