How do you think you'll measure your success at the end of life

Just that really.

I possibly have chosen the wrong words to use in my title but hopefully PPs will understand what I mean.

Will you measure success by career choice, money made, places travelled, family created, marriage or certainly never marrying.

For me I feel I'm at a bit of a crossroads. I have some decisions to make and I'm fed up of feeling a bit of a failure. I want to figure out what is important to me now but also what will be in years to come. What will last the test of time so to speak.

Interesting question that I need to ponder.

My first instinct is that, for me, it comes down to whether I was "there" for others when they needed me, regardless of my role.

Who is round my table at Christmas, or who’s sat with me around the table. I hope my kids and their families.

By how much my dc still want to spend time with me and have me part of their lives.

Just that I've had a nice life and I'm content with my lot.
