The key of success is to work hard

Success for me is more so a valid accomplishment. Money helps, however if not properly invested success may not last as long.

A lot of people use money as a measure of success. I don't see anything wrong with that by the way - but its not the only metric you might choose of course. . Others might use number of students who graduate, or patients who get better, or standing ovations achieved. I've found there really isn't a wrong answer but only you can define what it is for you, and focusing on this and keeping your expectations aligned with this is a great formula for happiness and fulfillment in your work-life.
For me?
- Success is measured by the number of active members of Jobcase. I figure if we provide a great platform for people to help one another, for people to get better jobs and maximize their earnings, and really help America's workforce get empowered in their worklife, then that should be most easily measured by how many people are actively using the platform. If we do a good job, they'll come back and more people will join. If we do a poor job, less people will come back and less people will join. So this simple metric is how I measure success today.
I had different metrics in the past. But I've never enjoyed any of them as much as this! Wondering how others measure?
For me, success in my work is measured in the quality of the work I do and the satisfaction of my customers, even though what I do is not considered 'real work'; I currently am an artist and photographer. Still, I like to approach my work with a critical eye to make sure I'm happy with it before showing it to my customers; if I am not satisfied, the piece does not see the light of day. It is a philosophy that has not failed me yet in terms of personal fulfillment, and I have yet to disappoint a customer. In life, my metric for success changes, but a general formula starts with how much I was able to get done, adds the number of sentences I said that made sense, and then divides that by the number of cups of coffee I had that morning before multiplying by the time spent with family and friends. With this formula, I can not only realize where I have room to improve, but also that I have the power to make the improvement. It sets up a constructive cycle, and I think that that is an important thing to have in a world that can really take the wind out of your sails if you let it.
