The purpose of life is the expansion of happiness. Happi- ness is the goal of every other goal. Most people are under the impression that happiness comes from becoming suc- cessful, accumulating wealth, being healthy, and having good relationships. There is certainly enormous social pres- sure to believe that these accomplishments are the same as achieving happiness. However, this is a mistake. Success, wealth, good health, and nurturing relationships are by- products of happiness, not the cause.When you are happy, you are more likely to make choices that lead to all these things. The reverse isn’t true. Everyone has observed people who are deeply unhappy even after they have attained incredible wealth and success. Good health can be taken for granted and abused. And even the happiest family can find its happiness ruined by a sudden crisis. Unhappy people are not successful, and no amount of money and achievement will change the equation.
