Dr. Albert Schweitzer, winner of the Nobel Peace in 1952; said, "Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful." So often we look to our success, we must find happiness first.
Some Peoples say:
Happy people are less self-focused, less aggressive and violent, and less susceptible to disease. "they are more loving, forgiving, trusting, decisive, creative, sociable, and helpful." Happy people have happy emotions and that's because they are usually more sociable and they are more apt to set optimistic goals and strive to meet them.
Consequently, their attitudess create heathier immune systems.

I love to respond to positive type of discussions and your post is one of them. In this particular case, I believe that happiness is a trophy by itself. Happiness begets positive things like success, love, friendship, wealth, contentment; among others. I guess not everybody knows this principle or if they do, they need to be reminded of this.
Nowadays, most of us tend to race with success or with other people's success. Unknowingly, when we accept that we want or would like to have this or that; we are also accepting that we lack something. It is better that we thank our Creator for all the blessings He is continuously showering upon us and not to want. A beautiful passage in the Bible goes something like this: Those who have will be given more; and to those who have little - the less that they have will still be taken away from them. I love to keep this in mind everytime and be thankful for what I have.

yes, happiness can bring success, but success can't always bring happiness. what is happiness for you?
for me, the happiness is that i can make my beloved live a better life. if they have some help, then i can give my hand. it is enough. but i dont' give up my interesting to do it. i dont' like work in the real life, so i choose making money online, then i am in a trouble, if i go on working in the same position,then i can give my beloved a better life, but i dont' want to lose myself.
