🌱 1. Self-Awareness and Growth
"Know thyself." – Socrates
Understanding who you are, what drives you, and how you evolve.
Continuous learning: intellectually, emotionally, and spiritually.
Overcoming fears, bad habits, and self-imposed limitations.
❤️ 2. Loving Relationships
"We are born in relationship, we are wounded in relationship, and we can be healed in relationship." – Harville Hendrix
Family, friends, romantic love, and community.
Being seen, accepted, and loved—and giving the same to others.
Deep connection brings more happiness than any material success.
🌍 3. Meaningful Work / Purpose
"The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why." – Mark Twain
Doing something that feels useful, fulfilling, or creative.
Doesn’t have to be grand—raising a family, fixing things, writing, teaching, farming—anything done with love and intention.
🧘♂️ 4. Peace of Mind
"Success is getting what you want. Happiness is wanting what you get." – Dale Carnegie
Letting go of constant comparison, anxiety, or regret.
Practicing mindfulness, acceptance, and inner stillness.
Simplicity and presence over chaos and clutter.
🎒 5. Experiences and Adventure
"Life is either a daring adventure or nothing." – Helen Keller
Travel, nature, art, music, new cultures, physical adventures.
Stepping into the unknown builds courage and perspective.
Collect moments, not just possessions.
🛠️ 6. Contribution and Service
"Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile." – Albert Einstein
Helping others in small or big ways.
Leaving the world better than you found it.
Sharing your gifts, time, knowledge, or empathy.
🕊️ 7. Freedom
Time freedom. Financial freedom. Emotional freedom.
The ability to make your own choices and live life on your terms.
Not being controlled by others’ expectations or society’s scripts.
Bonus: 💫 Legacy or Impact
Creating something that outlives you.
Could be a book, a child, a farm, a story, or even just kindness passed forward.
