Okay, I like your point that you made terrible habits, so that's excellent. So one of the reasons people who go to work in larger firms don't start as solo practitioners and stuff is because you do learn much better habits when you work in larger law firms in terms of the work. So it's very wise of you to see that.
And just because you're seeing that means you're probably trainable. So how do you get out of this? You just go to work, start working at a smaller firm doing something else in another practice area, and convince someone to hire you. That's all. There's nothing wrong with passing the bar and failing on your first, second, or third attempt.
Now you said a second attempt on the bar exam passing is not a, it's not an intelligence test. It's a test, so you must study more or learn the habit. No. You can get out of debt collection and do something else. You could even start your practice. No, there's no reason to fricking quit because you don't like what you're doing.
That's just nuts. People retire from law practice at about 85 to 90, maybe now. So no one should quit law practice because they had a bad start.
