Knowing how to accurately assess a project. I used to sweat this so much and would work around the clock to meet a miscalculated delivery date. Knowing my abilities I can propose and pad deadlines so that round the clock is something left to large pitches and important presentations.

Passing my knowledge on to others and helping them grow (when they want it of course).

Separating who I am from where I work. It is not easy for me (workaholic) but so incredibly important, emotionally to have other pursuits and people to feed my creativity, confidence and emotions.

I recently interviewed for a small strat consulting company (energy industry). I have 3 YoE and would be moving from engineering. the HR person asked me what my salary expectations were I was caught offguard and said I would expect it to be at least what I make now (around 100k). Im now worried theyll lowball me because I really shouldve asked for 120+bonus (I think this is market rate?) But they have salary bands they follow right?So if they pay consultants 140 usually would they offer me 100k?
