Will Work Ever Make You Happy
at 8:54
Answer
Nothing that you chase will ever make you happy.
You may think that by getting to a certain outcome or a milestone will make you happy, but when you get there, you will get a short-term boost, and then go back to being unhappy.
To be happy, you have to be happy with self.
