“Whatever you decide to do, make sure it makes you happy.”

Paulo Coelho

Simplified Meaning:

It's important to choose activities or jobs that bring you joy and satisfaction. Imagine you have two job offers: one pays more but involves work you don't enjoy, and the other pays less but is something you love doing. If you pick the one that makes you happiest, you'll likely feel more fulfilled every day and less stressed. For example, if you love painting but society pushes you toward a high-paying office job you dislike, choosing painting could lead to a longer-lasting sense of happiness. In general, focusing on what makes you happy means you're more likely to live a content and meaningful life, rather than just chasing money or other people's expectations. Ultimately, this helps you to wake up excited and go to bed feeling satisfied.
