01. The biggest indicator of a happy life is inner peace

The main premise that Hyrum W. Smith makes in this book is that the measure of a successful life is the achievement of inner peace.

By inner peace he means that state of well-being, tranquillity, and satisfaction that a person experiences only when they are living each day according to their inner values.

To make sure that our daily actions are in line with our beliefs, it is very important to first establish optimal management of our time and productivity.
