(22) have a positive influence on the world in some manner. Hopefully net positive by the time I die. Fitness and having a good time with friends keeps me happy.

I don't know if I'd say depressing. For me it's rather thought provoking and liberating. A friend recently went through Tony Robbins' program with his wife and I also saw the Netflix special. It made a strong impression on me. Def not the stuff I get to think about while drowning in PowerPoint. 🙂

41 - Purpose? I think the purpose of life is to be happy or content, and you have to figure out how to get there each day. You get little bits of it each day, and you have to recognize them and be grateful for them.

(28) Not sure of purpose. What makes me happy: fitness/cooking/travel

3x your age and yes I do! Takes awhile to get there though!

I have been thinking about the same questions and get very depressed about it. :(

38 - just recently starting to figure it out.

25. My family, friends, community. People.

D1, late bloomer! Were you too busy working this whole time to figure it out?

As for me, what makes me happy is good relationships with others and a purposeful mission in the work that I do (consulting can make me lose perspective on that sometimes though)

I see people who are doing 1st round technical asking, What is your current, expected CTC, offer. This question was not asked before 2 years in first level. Why should the tecnical person ask it!!! Some people might compare with their salary and reject the candidate even he is good in tech stack..

Gave first round technical round with a company today and it didn't go well. When asked about CTC, I said current is 24, have offer for 33 and I am expecting 40. Good day to shocked Interviewer🤣
