can't disagree with that. steve jobs had to leave apple, just to return later and grow the company even bigger. jack ma was refused to literally every job interview he had, just to later start his multi-billion Alibaba business. the list continues
>There are so many opportunities in this world, it is highly unlikely that there is nothing better for you, than say, your current job. Unless you’re number one on Forbes richest people, you know there’s room for growth.
If anything, aren't all the people on that list having tons of room for growth (because all their capital can be invested and grow with great returns)?
I also just don't like this weird faux life advice that's based on absolutely no real-world anything. Isn't it bad to think of our life as a race and that we have to achieve some "maximum" or else? What's wrong with a local maximum in terms of money or power or whatever else OP might think of as success when its coupled with the things that really matter: family, community, love, respect, etc.
wealth in terms of money was just an example, because it's easy to quantify and compare numbers. the idea can be applied to other non-material things, like family and relationships: there is always room to be a better parent/mother/son/daughter, and there is also room to be better towards your significant other. it's not life advice, it's just a reflection. but personally i think constant improvement is what makes us better and our lives interesting, otherwise we'd be stuck in the stone age.
