Happiness is perhaps one of the only destinations for which the map is created by our own unique experiences. As we grow up, we are taught to believe that life is a choice between success and happiness. We begin to think that in order to attain any level of success, we need to give up being happy. On the other hand, we believe that if we want to enjoy life, be carefree and happy, then we should not expect success as well.
The truth is, success and happiness are two sides of the same coin. Learning to be passionate about the work it takes to achieve your goals will inevitably lead to success. Similarly, doing something you love and attaining success as a result can be your key to happiness.
