Yep! 27 F here. I have 6/6. Well I guess 5.5/6. I don’t have a six pack but I do work out 5-6 days a week and think my body is pretty solid :) I feel so blessed every day. In fact, today’s actually my birthday, and I wished for everything to be exactly the same next year as it was this year.

I will be sure to let the rest of the group know if you are a 5.5/6 :)

4.5/6
Happily single
And mental health is what it is mid pandemic

Was missing number 1 until I left D

Not under 30 , still not >200k , 2 can never happen as this was never a dream just a mean to earn livelihood.
Rest 4 criteria are full filled.

1/4/5 for me :(

25M

Been getting back in the gym recently though, so hopefully 4/6 in a year or so

As to why? I work really long hours in a job I hate for the money, so naturally I miss out on a couple of these.

Yep! Go to bed around 11-12, and wake up around 5-6 and we’re good to go

Lotta BCG MCK and D in here

I definitely have 1 and 5. The rest are debatable…

I only have #5 lol

Just turned 30 but yes. Prioritize and don’t beat yourself up if you’re not 100% in every category 24/7. Maybe I had too many drinks at a social event so I miss my workout in the morning or have a stressful day at my job that impacts my mental health. That’s OK.

2 and 6 are tough ones

27 and have or well on my way to all of these. But, there are many periods where certain areas (esp mental health) have suffered, I happen to be in a good season right now. My advice is to prioritize yourself as. much. as. possible. At work - don’t feel obligated to stay on a team that’s not fulfilling/helping you grow/a positive environment. Advocate for yourself relentlessly, even if you don’t know exactly what you want, keep trying things until you find it. Don’t settle for relationships (including professional and friends) that are causing you stress. It may take time to find but there are people out there who will do nothing but support you and lift you up. If you’re struggling with mental or physical health, start with a test and learn approach to take steps in the right direction. There are times when this feels impossible, so have some ideas ready and start small.
Also - not everything you think is true.

Man I just have one or maybe 2 of these

Hopefully this is not in order of importance...

I cleared the interview and uploaded all the documents in the portal yesterday. Today mrng all the document verification was completed. But when I got the call for offer discussion, she asked what u expect. I said 9-10 LPA. She questioned me that on what basis I am asking for this much hike. She offered me 6.3 LPA as CTC with 21% variable. 5.2 as basic. Rest part in comments..
