What does it mean to be successful? Is it the pursuit of material wealth? Is it the pursuit of happiness? What is happiness? Does this happiness contribute to our purpose in life? What is our purpose in life?

These are some of the questions that keep me up at night.

Happiness is no longer worrying about your purpose in life or being succesful. Enjoying the moment, not having any questions keeping you up at night. Clear conscience, clear mind, no stress. It's not the most productive state of mind. Carpe diem, manjana, hakuna matata.

Thanks but I'm not being kept up at night out of worry, but rather the joy in thinking about and trying to understand the world. Afterall, in my view, there is joy to be had in personal growth.
