Success should be measured by the yardstick of happiness; by your ability to remain in peaceful harmony with cosmic laws.
We have everything we need to be happy, but we aren't happy. Something's missing.

Every day you can inspire others through your sincere concern for humanity’s happiness and progress.
No one should ever ask themselves that: why am I unhappy? The question carries within it the virus that will destroy everything. If we ask that question, it means we want to find out what makes us happy. If what makes us happy is different from what we have now, then we must either change once and for all or stay as we are, feeling even more unhappy.
-Paulo Coelho
"The Zahir"
It is neither wealth nor splendor; but tranquility and occupation which give you happiness.

Lao Tan said, “I was letting my mind wander in the beginning of things.”
“What does this mean?” asked Confucius. Lao Tan said, “It means to attain Perfect Beauty and wander in Perfect Happiness. He who attains Perfect Beauty and wanders in Perfect Happiness may be called the Perfect Man.”
Anything you're good at contributes to happiness.
-Bertrand Russell
