Hello guys, welcome to this wonderful day and to this great week. It's a festive season already, and I am happy to be here today, we are in the last month of the year so the year is almost finished. I am glad that God kept us all alive till this day. This is hive Ghana community and today I will be talking about success and happiness. This two things may sound very familiar but they have ways in which they are different.

One person can be happy and successful at the same time, but it doesn't mean that if you are successful you must be happy. They are two different things even though sometimes they need each other to be complete. For me I feel like success with out happiness is incomplete. Yes there can be success without happiness, because happiness does not always lies where success is, sometimes some people give up there happiness just to be successful and end up being something else. I want to be successful, but inside that, I also want to be happy. True happiness doesn't always comes from success, it most times comes from emotions, feelings and things that have to do with the heart. You see, I believe that happiness comes from the heart and that urge to be successful comes from your mind.
Also happiness without success is also incomplete to me, because that happiness won't last long and won't be very good, succes is what makes happiness complete and is what takes happiness to another different level. Let me give you an example. You are living a broke and happy life with your loved ones, you manage to eat one square meal a day, and you find it hard to lay house rent, you are happy but not successful, and in this case that part of you not being successful makes it very hard for that happiness to last long, your wife might eventually become tired of managing, or maybe one day you won't have any money to pay your rent again.
I just gave this example to illustrate how happiness looks like without success, and if you put it vice versa it will still go the same way. Although I think some people enjoy succes without being trules loved and happy, those kind of people that says money buys happiness. If you asked me I would say I don't think money can buy you true happiness, it can buy you a anything you need and can take you anywhere where you want, but it can't buy true love, be because most of the people you fall in love with will just be for the money, and the money itself will change your perspective of love, so there are things that people who are truly I love will do and feel that you can't, because you used money to buy yours.
Success and happiness are not the same thing, but I think they do need each other to make a man complete. Thanks for stopping by my blog. I hope you enjoyed my post. See you all next time. Bye.

Sucess and happiness are distinct indeed. And at some point, they complement each other. You gave wonderful illustrations. This was nice read.
