It’s all about the big picture in our life. Are we going to the place that actually makes us happy? Also, have we actively engaged and determined precisely what are the aspects in the life that truly make us happy?

These basic components include Financial Freedom. Another is Optimum Health. A third is optimal relationships. The fourth is peace and harmony within ourselves and our surrounding environment. And last but not least, is our need for spiritual fulfilment.
Like I said, each of these components have sub-components which will lead to the percentage of satisfaction achieved for that specific component given the avenue that is taken to reach it.
If one feels stressed or anxious, then he is not at peace. That is missing, so what is the person that is going after their happiness doing about their ‘Peace’ component?
