You will never climb Career Mountain and get to the top and shout, ‘I made it! ’ You will rarely feel done or complete or even successful. Most people I know struggle with that complicated soup of feeling slighted on one hand and like a total fraud on the other. Our ego is a monster that loves to sit at the head of the table, and I have learned that my ego is just as rude and loud and hungry as everyone else’s. It doesn’t matter how much you get; you are left wanting more. Success is filled with MSG. Amy Poehler
About This Quote

This quote about success is true. Success does not come in one giant gulp, it comes in small bites. A person’s career does not begin with their first job or the first thing they did right. It is a slow process of becoming better at your craft.

The process goes on for years and is filled with successes, failures, growing pains, and learning lessons. The most important lesson to learn is that you are never done learning. You can continue to learn new things and grow as a person for years after your career begins to be successful.
