How do you define a successful week?

I've had this process for a little over a year now. it works fine but I'm newer here so really curious to know how others define success.

Everything I do has a dollar amount assigned it goes as follows: 

Prospecting (calls/emails): $500 + every meeting set is additional $100 
Meeting ran: $1,000 
Closed won deal: $5,000 

If, at the end of the week, I get to $10,000 I define that as a successful week.

Have 1 on 1s on Monday and list out the weekly goals, if I can complete most of them, its a win.

Mine is much more simple, if I can look back at the week and be proud of my activity level I’m happy and call it a successful week.

I should clarify. I’m not getting paid. This is how my brain works. I need to quantify my effort and money is how I think.

If I have 2-3 great meetings that is high ticket value + probability of getting closed

Enterprise sales. Nothing is fast. I couldn’t possibly quantify tasks as you do, or I’d be in the hole. Some weeks have more tangible accomplishments than others.

For sure. I’m in more of a velocity role (30-45 days) so this is easier.

It sounds like a fun mental game. I'd just end up depressed. :)

That’s a great way to gamify your effort.

I reply to all emails within a day. Or ensure a response within a day or a follow up every 3 work days if complex. Keeps me happy and my mail happy and customers happy

I try to look with a longer perspective based on my orgs cycle - monthly/quarterly.
But upward mobility on opps, closes, project alignment, pipe gen etc.

When i still carried a monthly quota it was easier since it was just am I at or on track to be at my monthly number and if i moved towards it then it was a successful week.
Now that I carry an annual number with long ass sales cycles its genuinely much harder so now i focus more on what my pipeline i projecting and if I'm moving any key deals forward.
