Being Contented and Happy:
It is not the set goal that matters so much to me — it is rather the journey to get there; that should be so much fun. And contentment is the secret.
Contentment, on the other hand, is a matter of being satisfied with what you have and deriving joy from it. It focuses on what you have and hope to have instead of just a state of being. It strengthens hope and influences happiness. However, if you choose to be content with little, you will be happy & better focussed for more.
