Thrive in Midlife Discussion and Social

“Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful.” – Albert Schweitzer

Our careers are often seen as a series of milestones—titles, promotions, achievements. But the deeper truth is that success isn’t just about what we accomplish, it’s about the choices we make every day to align with what energizes and fulfills us.

Some decisions are obvious—like taking a new job or pivoting careers—but many are quieter: choosing curiosity over fear, setting boundaries that protect our creativity, or staying true to our values in the face of pressure.

Today, we’ll reflect on how the decisions we make in our careers shape not only our professional paths, but also our sense of purpose and well-being. Because success that costs your joy isn’t really success at all.
