“Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success.”– Albert Schweitzer
Success and happiness are two different ideas that are dependent on each other. People often believe that in order to be happy one must have a successful life. They relate success with money, power, luxurious lifestyle and a promising future. However, there will never be a universal explanation as to what success and happiness are because these terms have different meanings for different people.
In my opinion, success does not lead to happiness; instead, happiness is actually what makes people successful. Happiness contributes towards positive attitudes which motivates the people to undertake new goals and be successful in achieving them. Joyfulness helps to cultivate a behavior that reinforces successful and friendly perspectives. It helps an individual to unlock the doors of success.
Happiness is not a mere luxury but rather the very essence of living. The secret of being happy is to find joy in the simple things in life that gives you satisfaction. It is important to have an optimistic view in order to learn to appreciate your life. Having a positive attitude is the best way to accomplish all the goals and have a bright and exciting future. I firmly believe that happiness plays an important role in the pursuit of success.
