Happiness is considered very important in life. Why is it difficult to define? What factors are important in achieving happiness?

It is undoubtedly true that everyone in
this
world strives for happiness. It is difficult to define because it differs from person to person and there are various factors including good family relations, dream career and health that makes an individual happy. Different people see happiness from a different perspective which makes it is difficult to define it. Though the rich and affluent people are thought to be the happiest people by many,
however
, they might have different opinions about themselves.
For example
, a wealthy businessman earning a revenue of $20 million, is perceived as a successful entrepreneur by many, whereas he still has not achieved his predetermined targets and
thus
, is not happy with his achievement.
Moreover
, different persons set their own goals, according to their needs and desires, no matter how small or big they are and meeting those targets by their sheer hard work and dedication is satisfaction for them.
Hence
, a feeling of contentment is a true measure of victory. There are various factors that contribute to making an individual being happy.
Firstly
, it is irrefutable that family support is of paramount importance for every individual throughout the journey of life. A good family not only brings prosperity to a person's life but
also
help us to share worries and thereby reduces stress.
Additionally
, having a dream job is another way of getting satisfaction in life.
Finally
, these factors compounded with good health form an ideal combination of attaining accomplishment. As those, who are having a healthy work-life balance are happier than rich individuals, who surely have money to buy anything in
this
world but lacks prosperity. To conclude, happiness has a different meaning for different individuals being rich to being successful; I think a sense of contentment through accomplishment along with a good family is true satisfaction.

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

  • Summary
  • Restatement of thesis
  • Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

  • In conclusion
  • To conclude
  • To summarize
  • Finally
  • In a nutshell
  • In general
