Wow!, rightly said @jmis101 it required nothing to be happy, just by letting our heart to be free and embracing good energy, if a person set his happiness in the things he wants, he might take time to be happy, because, mostly the things we want take longer to come, but when we develop ourselves kind of happiness, we will finds life so easy and enjoyable.

Besides, rushing to the top can be lonely, so let start at where we are and embrace what's nice, which is being happy all the time no matter what.
