I created these questions to assess how happy, satisfied, and successful you feel in your career and life. Think about your reactions to the statements below and manually score your responses.
You'll notice that I blended work and life a bit. As much as we might hope to compartmentalize our working and personal lives, they do impact each other. I'm sure you've experienced that.
If your morning gets off to a bad start (e.g., you didn't sleep well), you may not feel like your best self during your entire day at work. Conversely, if you have a bad day at work (e.g., your boss yells at you), you may feel grumpy and unhappy all evening at home.
Be brutally honest with your reactions to the following statements. This will help you understand how fulfilled you are with your current job and career path and give you a sense of whether you live your life how you want.
Score each of the following statements on a scale of 1 to 5. A score of 5 means you "strongly agree" with the statement, while a score of 1 means you "strongly disagree" with the statement.
Strongly disagree
Disagree
Neutral
Agree
