Gurbaksh Chahal | Success vs. Happiness
Here’s an interesting comparison I found between the difference of Success vs. Happiness. Take in each word deeply, and you’ll be profoundly impacted by each comparison. We strive for both in our day to day lives, yet we sometimes forget the difference on what to achieve. Ultimately, happiness prevails over any of our hidden short-term desires of success. At the end of the day, that’s the only thing in life worth living and fighting for.
