Be The Wise Egret

When I drive a tractor on the farm, egrets appear from nowhere. They run behind the tractor for insects and worms.

Almost all of them run behind the tractor to have that delicious food. And that leads to fights between them. They fight with each other and not all win. So, some stay without even getting a single worm to eat.
Whereas there are some wise egrets. They prefer to stay away from the crowd and avoid the fight. They are happy with whatever they get.

I would advise you to be that wise egret.
Don't sprint in the direction where everyone is heading. Your happiness might be somewhere else.
A luxurious car may not make you happy. But, that smile on the face of your child when you stay at home with them unexpectedly; might make your day.
The struggle is undoubtedly necessary. You have to. But, stop for once and ask yourself why are you doing that.
If your answer isn't making you or your loved ones happy, leave that immediately.
Set your goals which are realistic. That's the key to happiness.
Your loved ones don't need the money earned by you. They need you.
Live the life, before life leaves you.
