I ran into an old sales mentor that put so much about my career into perspective.
Wanted to see how the war room felt about the question here.
For so much of my career I was living to work and trying to become a C level. Then I moved to sales.
Now I feel like a hired gun and happy with that. I want to work to enjoy life with my family and don't really care how far up the ladder I go. Sales gets me enough money to live the life I want and frankly I'm happy with that now. Personally I'd rather spend money doing my hobbies and spending time with my family than working 12 hours to make big bucks in the VP/C-suite.
Curious what the rest of the war room feels like with this? How many here are trying to get things moving to get into a C-level spot, or how many are happy sharpening their skills to be better at sales and let the pieces fall where they may?
