Quote by Eleanor Roosevelt

Happiness is not a goal it is a by-product.

Happiness is not a goal it is a by-product.

Summary

This quote suggests that happiness should not be the sole objective that one sets out to achieve in life. Instead, it emphasizes that true happiness is the result of one's actions, experiences, and overall mindset. It implies that by focusing on pursuing meaningful goals, nurturing relationships, and living authentically, happiness naturally emerges as a by-product of these endeavors. In other words, true happiness cannot be directly obtained by actively seeking it, but rather it is something that arises as a consequence of leading a fulfilling and purpose-driven life.
