How has your definition of success changed throughout your career?
What experiences prompted this shift?- Grapevine

As I'm entering a new stage of life, I'm starting to reevaluate my career priorities. In my 20s, I was all about climbing the ladder and chasing prestige. Now, I'm more focused on finding work that aligns with my values and allows for a balanced lifestyle. 

Have any of you gone through a similar shift? How did it change your career trajectory? And how do you define success for yourself now versus when you first started out?

I know this will sound like a very biased opinion but just sharing my 2 cents of today’s market.

The way with highest probability of success, money and ensuring a better future for your future generations is to startup.

It has the highest risk, highest reward. But in today’s landscape: where inflation is always higher than your hike, there’s no guarantee of employment even in next 1 years, the effort to remain in top 1% is humongous and many other reasons like that, really make me feel that if you’re able to start a company and even capture 0.1% of market who’s willing to pay something for your service/product, that’s all you need. Of course the struggle doesn’t end there and you have to keep working for as long as possible? But your capacity to earn and provide for generations to come is much higher than working for someone else.

All disagreement is welcome :)
Just tired of running this race for years now and still never feeling financially secure.

I want to see how different people perceive success. When will they feel successful, after achieving what? Like x amount of money, a house, a car, a partner, and what else could it be?

Hello Grapevine Community,

I hope you’re all doing well. I’m Ravikiran, and I recently experienced an unexpected layoff from my role in Customer Experience and Support, where I’ve accumulated nearly a decade of invaluable experience.

I’m reaching out here today because I’ve noticed the exceptional talent and knowledge within this Grapevine community, and I’d love to tap into your collective wisdom.

Throughout my career, I’ve been passionate about enhancing customer satisfaction and experience. Now, with this unexpected change, I see it as an opportunity to explore new horizons and continue growing in this field.

If any of you have insights to share, advice on job prospects, or even know of any roles that align with my experience, I would be immensely grateful. Your expertise can make a significant difference in guiding me through this transitional phase.

I understand that your time is valuable, so I’m flexible and open to connect at your convenience. Whether it’s a quick chat or a more in-depth discussion, I’m eager to learn from your experiences.

Additionally, I’d like to mention that my family and I are currently facing a medical situation as my wife is in her fifth month of pregnancy. Times are challenging, and any support or guidance is greatly appreciated. You can reach me at +91 8152804248 or via email at ravikirangowda12345@gmail.com.
