Leo’s First Day Back in Office | The West Wing

Baby Steps work for any person of any age in most situations...slowly circling in the wagons can be just as productive as jumping all in.

First.

Why is he so unmotivated to do anything?

[@aph1976]

Well Leo did have a heart attack and that might have affected him.

CJ is now COS, and Leo doesn't want to do or say anything that will undermine her. Very professional of him.

Everyone was getting distracted by a dozen different issues happening that day and going to him for advice at the end of the episode he points out you can't get bogged down in all these issues and they need to focus on their domestic policy because they got one year left in office and they need to go full throttle.

You discover in a conversation with Tobey later on that he's disappointed in what has been happening. "You pulled your punches" he tells Tobey about last night's State of the Union - especially compared to the previous ones. His biggest concern is that the Bartlett administration will coast the final year, which is a huge flaw considering that there are 365 days left - and the President can affect more changes than any single man - in other words why waste time when they could do something. It's similar to the message he gave Bartlett when he was struggling to get anything done after the first year.

​@jamesrawlins735 could we have you as advisor to an alternate universe RL admin? Or should had you on the current admin's advisory payroll for all of this year!
