To pursue happiness for its own sake is the surest way to lose it.

About This Quote

When it comes to finding happiness, the pursuit of material possessions or fame is not the answer. The pursuit of happiness can take many forms, but the best form of happiness is found within oneself. We cannot obtain happiness for ourselves by seeing what others have. We must look inside ourselves and find ways to improve our lives.

We can begin by being honest with ourselves about what we have accomplished and what we need to do to reach our goals. We must be willing to work hard for our happiness, but we shouldn’t be afraid to fail if that’s what is needed.
