Happiness is the ultimate life metric
If you don’t know what makes you happy, you don’t have a way of measuring how good your life is.
We always hear stories of people who have created seemingly huge outcomes, or exceptional lives, or huge accomplishments only to be unhappy. They have put in the work and the sacrifice and what they get out of it is not worth the effort because it is not making them happy.
Figure out what makes you happy and then design a life around that.
