Did I understand the Question?

Popularity. That is indispensabilty at the place of work, when your opinions is always sought for.

Your bank account

What else if not one's Finanicial Statements.

Success to be is how many lives has changed through you.As a network marketer, seeing people grow in my team from zero earnings to six figures is success! Duplicating yourself and building leaders in your network is success! To me it's just more about the growth and success of the people you sponsor, that's evident of your success.

*Your ability to impact so many lives positively that your work alone can speak for u.
*When you make good and legit money from Ur chosen carrier. I.e, your financial freedom.

Friend, I think that this question is more of an individual thing than general. In my circle of friends, our measure of career success even varies, but there are common grounds. Let us examine some:


1: Expertise and professionalism

What can I rate myself in my field? Am I just some regular guy in this field or some expert? What makes me that expert? E.g if you are a lawyer, in how many areas of law can I deal well? If I focus on just an area, how good am I? And can the firm release me for a client on a transaction and be rest assured all Is will be dotted and Ts crossed?

2: Financial reward/Salary

I have read a lot of posts where people are advised not to 'chase' money at the start of their career because it will come. I do laugh. What does chasing mean? If you follow that to the letter, you may not be successful career wise. Chase money, but do it within the ambience of the law. Ensure you get paid for your service. A terrible pay will most likely affect career growth. No matter how good you are, no matter how hard working you are, the reward for your efforts must be proportionate or near proportionate to help with the mental and material growth which will put you in a great mindset to give your career what it takes to grow. So, your pay can tell how far you've gone vis-a-vis career too.

3: Caucus standard

No matter where you work or your pay, there is always a meeting point for you and those at your level in the same profession or even other professions sometimes. How do you do in those meeting points? If you're on the line, it is a sign your career is going well. Mind you, know the difference between things they achieved which are unconnected to career e.g if they all have cars and you don't, it might be more of a question of choice than growth.

4: Achievements

Make a list and be fair to yourself. Start from your day one. Don't go including how you're good at making jokes at work. That's no career achievement. Look at things like: The transactions you're Involved in, and the feedback from the clients. Look at your great suggestions that helped the firm out of a tight corner, look at how you do with urgent works etc. If you're some regular employee whom the office won't bother to question his attempt to resign, you need to work more on your career. You're either not building the right career or building the right career in a wrong way.

5: Professional Popularity

This is not easy to achieve on a big scale as a beginner. But there are ways you can look at this from your immediate working environment. What does your employer and colleagues have to say about you vis-a-vis your work? How deft are you at thinking outside the box? Have you been perceived as the future of your profession or even addressed by the names of some big shots in your field? I don't mean people who call you Fawehinmi because you always argue, I mean people who call you that because of your productive inputs.

6: Experience

List the professional experience you've had. Almost always, these are not ones that can be found in everybody. People always look at some icing on your cake. A client who is aware that an area has seasoned lawyers in the field of election matters will be super impressed when you're that lawyer who is deft at election matters and also maritime law.

7: Personal Conviction

What do you think of yourself and your career?
This is important because no matter how good, sound, popular, intelligent and deft you are, there is that inner man that identifies the truth for you, even when the whole world doesn't know it.

AM HERE TO LEARN FROM OTHERS.!!
..
*murdifaid*
1. How quick and consistent you climb the ladder of hierachy in your work place.
2. How quick your subordinates carry out your directives.
3. How eager your colleagues are in inculcating you in their teams.
4. How much appreciation and approvals you get from your superiors.

When u make money while sleeping

if i am made the M.D

When I dont get to introduce myself[i][/i]

Am here to learn

By how much money is breathing in ur act

nice one

there is no right way to define success. How we see success may be based on personal values, environment etc I think there is a theory of need, getting to self actualisation should mean you have achieved all. Again how we define self actualisation may be subjective. just be the best you can be

if am able to have a house

buy a car

have financial freedom


irrespective of my qualification, salary or position in my company

when I see myself on Forbes. when people want to be the first to write about me,be it bad or good and yes when any post that smells my name hits front page on NAIRALAND.

MsDelilah:
1. How happy I am doing what I do.
2. How my job/career impacts lives.
3. My bank account.
4. If I still have a social life.

You could be earning millions, AND still hate your job. You could be earning millions, AND have no time for your friends and family. That sucks. There should be a balance.

That balance shows your level of success in your career.

My opinion.

Thank you guise for you're contributions. But i think i have goten some satisfactory answer from this quoted statement. I think is all about balance.

By the number of those who can say they were blessed through you.

How many people you bless is how you measure success.
