What makes most people happy?

A man can be happy only if he/she is growing in his welth and reotation.

Happiness defines to be a contentment of what you have. Many people would wish for too much. As i observe many people striving hard to have money but they don't think that they have lost a diamond because they are too busy collecting stones.

i think this is depend on the people it self,for me is depend on our family healthy,life calmly,money,security of life, relationship and also depend on my God

My answer is either of the two. If a person has what he/she really wanted in life and/or content with what he/she has, then that person is indeed happy. Some people may not get what he or she has ever wanted or longed for, but are very optimistic, hopeful, have cheerful disposition and outlook in life, and perhaps very spiritual. Thus, it's these people's state of minds that had kept them happy despite the adversities. In my case, "It's all in the state of mind" is actually my dictum. Life isn't perfect and we have to admit it. That's why every little thing makes me very happy, and I try my best to be content with what I have.

Well I believe happiness is a state of mind!if you can control your mind you can make it free from worries.All the other things you had mentioned will never give you long lasting happiness!If you want to be happy you can be happy with the things you have!Satisfaction and appreciating thee things you have can give you long lasting happiness!
