Good points here… my definition of success has certainly evolved over the years.

I believe that I have a firm grasp on what is important. ❤️

Such a great question. Having a purpose or mission in life is what makes getting up every morning worthwhile. I've been working on a book about my career at Goldman Sachs for several years and finally turned in the finished manuscript to my publisher in April. I have loved every challenging minute as it has forced me to do my best work, a state of mind I truly relish.

Wow. Purpose is so strong. But I wonder if that is the case across age groups. Earlier in my career title and recognition may have been more important.
