    Look! what have you understood about relation between Success and Happiness. I already had some kind of materials about it. Great, realy!! So, every each other day I will post a part of it to the forum so that everybody can have a chance to read and think about it. It is realy necessary for you and me to become Success or Happiness or both Success and Happiness.

    Here is the first part:

    Preface:
    One of the most common misconceptions about success is that it relates directly to money or happiness. While success can make one rich and/or bring happiness, it does not necessarily do either.
    In this book, a clear definition of seccess is given: what it means and why it is so often misunderstood as a measure of wealth or happiness. Then, happiness is discussed philosophically before we talk further about success.
    I must say right away that there are no secrets or shortcuts *****ccess, but there are strategies and methods, which, if followed, will greatly increase the chances of success and a successful execution. These strategies are totally independent of what what you do or what your goals are. You can employ them to carry out a successfull project at work or to create a beautiful stroke on a tennis court.
    One of the ancient introduced secreats of success by Aristotle is "thinking". However, here we will assume that you are already thinking since you''ve picked up this book to read. We will discuss that although thingking is a first and necessary step, it is by no means enough to guarantee a desired outcome.

    Cute!
    If only state that, maybe, my nick will be locked for spamming.
    the topic is so interesting for me to post immediately, instead of feeling asleep now.
    According to a definition in the internet, Success is the achievement of something desired, planned, or attempted: attributed their success in business to hard work. And happiness is an agreeable feeling or con***ion of the soul arising from good fortune or propitious happening of any kind; the possession of those circumstances or that state of being which is attended with enjoyment; the state of being happy; contentment; joyful satisfaction; felicity; blessedness.
    Well, what should I say now?Nothing. It makes me confused

    Now, it''''''''s time for my beautiful wives. HAPPINESs!!!!!
    See u then, Mr. NVTHUYBK

    I am sorry if you don not like that. And happy if it is useful for somebody. But You may not sure about the relation between that. So you should read and think about this.
    Just post this for you to learn, think and study English:
    Here is next part
    Success:
    Success, by definition, means achieving you objectives. Thus, a sucessful person must be an individual that accomplishes his objectives more often than he fails to do so. Success is largely defined by measures such as wealth, position or status. In ad***ion, success is measured by one''s capabilities. (It is trivial if a seven foot tall man makes a achievement if he is only six feet tall).
    Usually the word success is used interchangeably with financial success. This is the main reason for fallacy that a cases money may be only a by-product of success. For example, a painter who has achieved his goal of masterfully illustrating his vision on rrardless of anybody offering a $1,000,000 for it.
    The most common misconception about success is that people think that it will automatically bring happiness. Although any success will temporarily make you happy, it does not guarantee you overall happiness in life. There are many financially successful businessmen who are very unhappy individuals, and there are millions of deprived people who totally content and satisfied with their lives. This is because while success is about the achievement only, happiness is about how we feel about our achievements and how we got them.

    Thanks for your rocommendation. The name of that book is "Secrets of Success and Happines".
    Here is next part:
    Happiness

    Happiness means the general con***ion of success. This is one goal which all rational beings have in common, and it''s desirability is self-evident. One does not need to justify the pursuit of this goal, which is more important to people than any other. Happiness is the final end.
    So if happiness is the common state of success as claimed, why are there many successful people who are discontented individuals? The answer is simple: there is a huge difference between provisional satisfaction and lasting happiness. The joy of final graduating from college may last longer than the pleasure of drinking a couple of beers, but it is far from making one eternally happy in life.
    Although the journey to any goal may be very thrilling, true happiness in life comes when one truly wants and likes what one has or has achieved. Unless you are content by nature (as many simple people are), you must first know yoursefl in order to learn what you truly want. Once you know yoursefl, you either already have what you truthfully want in life or you don''t. If you don''t, you can set intermediate goals aligned with you ultimate goal, so you can reach it. the strategies that you are about to read in the coming chapters will increase your chances of accomplishing your goals.

    Here is next part:
    Strategies for success
    Although the strategies you are about to read will increase your chances of becoming successful regardless of your talent level in any field, it would help greatly if you are doing something in which you have some talent. This would also guarantee that you will enjoy doing your task. Seldom do people hate doing things in which they are talented! Obviously there is not always the opportunity to do what one likes, but while you are earning a living, it does not hurt to constantly search for you dream job.
    There is an important message here for those of you who are parents and are helping your young children to grow up and become successful and happy in their life. Try to find out every early in their lives what their talents are. Then help them to grow their gift so they can make a living out of it. The examples of parents who foolishly pushed their children towards careers that they, themselves, would have liked to have regardless of the children''s interest and talent are plenty. There is a chance that you the re
    ader are one of them.

    Here is next part:
    I am sad that, this topic is not interesting. But I think that it is metimes goog for you so, I will post all the part of this topic here so that you can sometimes read it. Hope that it can be usefull for you anyway!!!!!
    Goal
    You have got to have a goal and a target because, if you don''t have a target, it is hard to tell when you reach it. Furthermore, if there is no goal, what would you focus on to assure a superior execution?
    However, just having a goal is not eough. Your goals must be smart. A smart goal is a goal that is achievable and which does not set you up for failure. An achievable goal is one that you are not sure you can achieve. This type of goal assures that you stretch your capabilities. An unachievable goal is one that you know you cannot acieve.
    Moreover, a smart goal is aligned with your ultimate goal. Otherwise, your accomplishments become trivial once you realize they have not made any contribution towards the ultimate goal, which consequently hurts your confidence and makes you depressed.
    It is important that you stick with your goals and do not alter them after encountering the first obstacle. Yet, it is wise to be ready to change your goal once you realize a blunder or because of a change in environment. If the goal is changed repeatedly, you have to reevaluate your ability of setting up smart goals. Furthermore if the ever changing goals have been set for others as well, you will soon lose respect and credibility.
