“If you want to be happy in life, tie it to a goal, not to people or things.”
Happiness should never be dependent on anything ideally. If happiness is dependent on
something that is changeable to undergo change or something beyond our control then there are
higher chances of getting disappointed. And if happiness is goal oriented then we need to make
suitable and required efforts and is in our control.
The first part goal is nothing but our own aspiration, expectations from ourselves. Do things that
make us proud of our own self. We want a life that has a meaning, so, it is important to attach
our self to our foals and work to achieve it, because once we achieve it the happiness is
unmatched no matter how many social bonds and relationships may have made us happy for a
moment. When we try our happiness to a goal remember too that is not the achievement of the
goal necessary that will be bringing us the joy. Whatever the situation the process of having the
goal and working towards it is what will bring us the joy sought in our life.

The second part of our happiness is tied to people and it’s a good thing. People and things may
supplement our life and moments of joy but we believe a happy life is a meaningful life,
happiness is when we realize our own worth and being. Also, the happiness for the present but
it’s not eternal. So, attachment to temporary things often brings frustration, longlines and we
constantly live with the fear of losing it the vest moment.
Hence to be happy is more possible if it is goal oriented and just person in thing oriented
