Look after the pennies and the pounds will look after themselves by MukumburaYour Say: How do you measure success?
Look after the pennies and the pounds will look after themselves by MukumburaHow do you measure success when evaluating your marketplace profile or career? Sales? Earnings? Personal satisfaction?
In a recent FreelanceSwitch article, Melanie Brooks explores a CareerBuilder study that examined how a person’s income relates to their sense of being successful. She then goes on to list some other ways she measures success.
When you think about what being successful on the marketplaces (or your career) looks like, what is uppermost in your mind? The amount of money you make, one of Melanie’s other measures, or something completely different?

For me measure of success is not how much money I earn, it’s about branding, how many people knows about me and my work. You maybe noticed here on the Envato notes cool signature “Hi, I’m Collis and I work at Envato!” here Collis is synonym for Envato. We are all product of Envato, someone is more famous someone is less (for example compare Xbox vs Windows Media Center, same manifacturer different reputation).
Success for me is the ability and ease to embrace the failure in measuring it;

I am making others and myself happy.
By the number of people I can make happy
