Josh Walthall, a former prosecutor for New Hanover County and the North Carolina State Bar brings career and life advice – and great stories – for licensed professionals and everyone else trying to do the right thing in their job.
Key take-aways are:
1. Many situations that give rise to complaints or enforcement actions can be avoided by treating other people well. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. 2. If you need professional help, get it. The best use of a professional is in an instance you experience once, or seldom, and the professional deals with repeatedly in their career. Your results will be better, and your stress levels will go way down when you get the help you need. 3. Selling opportunities arise when you consistently help people solve their problems.

Key take-aways include:
1) You – and your children – can finish college at a young age. The university’s four-year program may or may not be the one that serves your student best. 2) Second, get creative and go big to find income opportunities. Dr Newheiser, later a pastor, seminarian, seminary professor, and author, went to Saudi Arabia as a management consultant in the oil industry! He did a high-paid job for a rich client, with expat pay and benefits layered on top. From there, he managed his expenses down and created wealth that still helps his family three decades later as he works and serves in different capacity. 3) There’s time for service in the church, whatever other demands exist on your time. Jim found time to serve as pastor of a secret church in Saudi Arabia while succeeding in his career as a management consultant.
