Don’t wait

"Chasing success to find happiness may leave you waiting forever. Research shows that happiness comes first—it's the driver of success. Cultivating well-being leads to better career outcomes, including higher productivity, greater job satisfaction, and increased income.
Research by Sonja Lyubomirsky and colleagues reveals that happier people are more likely to achieve career success. So instead of waiting for success to make you happy, focus on what makes you happy now—and let success follow." —Laurie Santos
