About This Quote

Happiness never made anyone rich or famous. That must be why ambitious people avoid it. If you’re not happy, you’re not going to be as successful as you want to be. If you’re not as successful as you want to be, the money isn’t going to come rolling in.

So if you’re ambitious and you pursue happiness, then you’re going to have a tough time of it. This quote is a great reminder that wealth and fame aren’t the only things that will make you happy. If there was no challenge, there wouldn’t be happiness.
