Not so much an idea, but a mentality that I could break the cycle and overcome family issues to be a success in life. Once I realized that just because nobody else in my family had done it, didn't mean I couldn't, the sky opened up and my whole life changed.

The power of positive thinking. good for you .

That as much money as I try to amass, and as much as I chase the bag as hard as I can, any time I waste trying to amass that wealth I'm not going to get back. Had the talk with an older man in law after I graduated and he drilled it into me that the bag is great, but he would have given up hundreds of thousands to get a few moments of his life back or feel them more deeply. Shook me honestly.

It's easy to caught up in the chase, foregoing more meaningful things as life passes by.

Have you ever made a career move that you didn’t really want to make bc it wasn’t the right time but you knew it would advance your career and help you financially?

I have a great opportunity to really advance professionally and financially, but if I’m being honest, I don’t want it right now. What I’m doing works for my life right now and I enjoy where I’m at. But I also feel like I’d be nuts to pass up such a great opportunity.

COMMENTS REQUESTED!

In the past, lawyer wellness and lawyer discipline/character fitness for bar applicants have existed in silos. I’d like to finally form a bridge between lawyer disciple and lawyer wellness and focus on prevention. When we think of lawyer discipline, we automatically think of outrageous behavior like stealing money. Those are extreme. The common cases are too stressed out and forgetting deadlines or death of a loved one and not having time to call clients back. Cont’d
