The top is going to feel a lot like where you are now.
True, there will be more zeros in your bank account and your phone will ring more, but other than that it’ll be very similar to the slow and steady increase in quality of life you’re on right now. There’s no big jump when you make it on top.
The quality of relationships, contentment, level of loneliness, willingness to care for others, your width and depth of wisdom…none of that changes when you’re on top.
Being on top is just another day as it pertains to the journey of all of the things that actually matter.
So don’t be fooled by the top.
But don’t dismiss it either.
You can learn and grow a lot from the top…and you can learn and grow just as much where you are today.
p.s. The Top begs the question…What are you going to do when you get there?
And the answer to that has very little to do with your achieved position (the top) and everything to do with who you are, and what your intentions and values have been all along, and how they’ve SLOWLY been evolving.
