Happiness is a byproduct of meaningful struggle

Sigmund Freud once wrote in a letter to Carl Jung: “One day, in retrospect, the years of struggle will strike you as the most beautiful.” Happiness is not a byproduct of ease.

That’s real happiness. So, ask yourself: What are you running from that you need to be running toward?
