What does it mean to have a successful Career?

31 October 2008

What does it mean to have a succcessful career? There are some questions I throw to myself and I kept thinking how do I weigh myself in being successful in my career.

1. Is it when you earn a 5-figure salary?

2. Or when you are a director of a multi-national company?

3. Or perhaps you are managing 5 subordinates at one time?

4. You probably assist the company to earn millions of dollars a year?

5. You do not need to pay house or car instalments anymore?

6. You do not need to worry about your empty bank account??

7. You can afford to stay in suites while traveling??

8. You have the $$$ to just take a flight to London for a few days off??

9. You probably own more than 2 houses or 2 cars???

10. You have a full-time Indonesian maid who handles your domestic engineering???

I can go on and on and on with my imagination.

Nevertheless, I want to hear from YOU on what does SUCCESSFUL Career means to you. Please tell me.

    Dear all,

    In my personal opinion, I feel that a successful career is a career
    which provides me a passion to contribute more and happy with the result that I achieved. Besides, it has a broad potential to explore further in future.Moreover,it gives you a flexible time, enough money to spend,happy arises from self achievement and surrounded by nice colleague who can share their ideas,establishments and easy to talk.

    Note: I enjoy your travel blog :-)

    Regards,
    Peter

    errrrrr….i think it’s when u find balance in everything that u do. Successful career doesn’t comes in one set. It comes with a package. Doesn’t really matter how much you earn really, cos that’s too subjective…..by right..one shud be successful in everything..personal life, working life and others of course…
