Happiness index of almost all countries is decreasing day by day and one of the major reasons for the same is the involvement of people in building their carrier better and better, as
this
 involves a great amount of time and effort,
this
 will definitely shorten the way of enjoyment and performing any leisure activity like sports, arts, cooking and may be anything that make the individual happy. Definitely, as per myself
this
 has more disadvantages than advantages. ⚠️ Trial period: 2 days 22 hours People now days are more professional and wants to do their best in achieving their possible standards.
Moreover
, not only
this
 they invest their hard time in earning more as they link happiness with money. With money, individual can definitely gain luxury in
life
, but without fitness or happiness everything seems to be useless. A Society where we live in demands more on the person's financial side and standard of living matters a lot to show your capacity and capability to the people around.Having worked for long hours not only effect the enjoyment time of the person but
also
 the
health
. Sitting long hours on desks creates a sense of depression and stress, which ultimately destruct the
health
.
For instance
, many people forget their mental and physical well being and pay full attention towards their work and damage their personal relationships.
This
 being the biggest reasons for relationship breakage. Having involved in the leisure activities can be a great move to help one with good
health
 and perfect mind to even excel better in their carrier and a
life
 as a whole.
Therefore
, opting for personal hobbies like outdoor games, cooking and art activities can be a great option to live follow a good
life
.Despite of many mental
health
 agencies awareness people lack in adopting the same. In conclusion, I would like to say that people work for living and not living to work. The motto of
life
 should be in balancing the both to live a happy
life
. Happiness does not go with the money, but with better
health
 and sound mind.
