- Happiness time: how long I can stay happy (or content, at least) through a single day.
Before this turns rough, philosophical or greedy… it is just related to pretty basic fulfillment of a pretty modest life.

>What metrics do you pay attention to?
About the same. Reading only the headline, I expected business metrics not personal and jotted down the following. It really turned out more personal than anything.
To the extent that I'm working with equipment or material, am I getting a good amount of performance compared to what can be expected within the reasonable range? Is the cost appropriate for the performance?
Same with the people. Am I getting a good amount of value creation or invoiceable activity overall? Once again within the reasonable range.
Same with the clients. Am I giving them their money's worth in ways that sustain or grow operations?
Everyone needs to be enthusiastically capable and involved in pushing the client satisfaction level to the upper end of what's reasonable and keeping it there. Not only to remain within striking distance of the occasional unreasonable requirement.
Everyone needs to be smiling enough for you to hear it in their voice, and the equipment if any needs to be humming along nicely.
