Success could also mean something different from its usual definition involving
a higher position,
a lofty title,
more money,
fancy cars, or
huge houses and the like.

Happiness could even just emanate from simple joys like
a roof over one’s head,
enough food on the table,
seeing one’s kids grow and become the best versions of themselves,
being able to spend quality time with a loved one,
having the ability to do something good, or
peace of mind.

It’s not having what we want, but it’s about having what we need and wanting what else we have. It isn’t not looking forward to betterment, but it’s just having the right mindset while working and praying for such progress to materialise.
