How can you be successful and not being happy? The reason is that you have measured success to be what you have accomplished in life, the position you have attained, the level of power you command and also the wealth at your disposal. If all these aforementioned are the major prerequisite to success, then majority of the wealthy and well to do citizens would have been happy in their daily life, marriages, place of work etc.
SUCCESS DOES NOT REALLY MEAN WHAT YOU HAVE BUT WHAT YOU DO WITH WHAT YOU HAVE, that is success. Success means you have accomplished the purpose of a particular thing. so if you are wealthy and the purpose of your wealth is not accomplished, you can not say that you are successful. As a legal practitioner, when you refuse to discharge your duties according to what you are supposed to do, although you might earn your fame, you cannot say you are successful.
Human beings are full of this words "I have everything and i am well to do but i am not happy, things are not going well with my family". When they go outside they earn self respect because of what they have acquired but they are dying insidiously because of lack of happiness. Success without happiness.
Lazarus in the great book (Holy Bible) was not rich but he was successful in terms of God's purpose for his life, but the rich man has all and yet unhappy at the end. No matter what you have acquired in life, when you are not under God's purpose, success is not guaranteed.
I will say wealth and position without purpose is equal to a beautiful car that has no fuel to power it. Remember, SUCCESS IS NOT WHAT YOU HAVE BUT WHAT YOU DO WITH WHAT YOU HAVE
