Defining success is not an exact science by any means. In some ways, its especially difficult to quantify ones success when they have a job that places them in the public eye, a position that is ripe for critique and high expectations. Perhaps those who best thrive in those scenarios are the ones who can navigate through all noise and continue to evolve and grow, both in their skill sets and as individuals.In many ways, that is an integral part of the Atmosphere story.
