A saying speaks: A happy man is too satisfied with the present to dwell too much on the future. Most time, if we are too addicted into present happy, we are thought to be short-eyed.We have to work for future to guarantee future's present happy. But we know,no money drops from heaven.So we are always balancing our present enjoyment and hard working for future. What is your favorite, mylot friends?

I think success leads to happiness. The success can be related to anything, though. There are many small things that we can successfully complete everyday that make us happy. It could be something small like cooking a good meal. This success leads to happiness by knowing that you have done a good job and also tasting the rewards ;) Some larger successes that can lead to happiness could be your career (greater financial freedom), education, etc. I wouldn't say that happiness is solely based on success, though, as there are so many ways to be happy. That being said, I think I would prefer happiness, as that means you have been successful. And if I haven't been successful, than at least I can still be happy ;)

i choose HAPPINESS! we can wish for happiness! but success, it needs to be done and it is not by wishing. how can you be successful if you are not happy? i go for what i can wish for. yes, money is really important nowadays. money can buy you happiness but for just a short while. we cant survive without happiness!!! so for me, happiness wins!

One should have happiness in his life. Otherwise, no success is meaningful. So, enjoy each and every success; take some time to celebrate it and then move on to the next target. You have to keen on the future and that doesn't mean to skip the present. I hope, you understand my words.

What you say is true.If we are too happy with the present we could neglect the future.But there is also a saying that if we do all our present activities well the future will take care of itself.We ought to work hard and set aside money for future too.
