Factors of happiness

FACTORS OF HAPPINESS
What are the biggest factors that are responsible for our happiness? This question is tough to answer, especially since the answer differs from person to person. What makes you happy will not necessarily make your neighbor happy. But I'm still answering this question based on 10 years of my actual data.
By studying actual data on happiness, I found out that these are the biggest factors responsible for my happiness:

1. 
   Love
   
2. 
   Exercising
   
3. 
   Relaxing
   
4. 
   Career
   
5. 
   Friends
   
6. 
   Family
   
7. 
   Sleep
   
8. 
   Hobbies
   
9. 
   Traveling
   
10. 
    Health

The 10 biggest factors that are responsible for my happiness
I have been tracking my happiness for the last 10 years.
For the past 10 years, I've reflected every day and determined which factors had the biggest influence on my happiness. This covers about 90% of the very simple method I use for tracking my happiness.
In order to give you an idea of what kind of happiness factors have influenced my life over the past 10 years, I have created a word cloud of these happiness factors. This word cloud is based on more than 3,000 days of data!
Based on this actual data, I've collected the top 10 factors that are responsible for my happiness.

1. Love: spending time with my girlfriend

The biggest factor of my happiness is my relationship. It had a significant influence on my happiness on 1,658 days.
What does this mean? Spending time with my girlfriend has historically influenced my happiness the most. We are a happy, normal couple. We love, we laugh, we occasionally disagree, we call each other names, we sometimes agree in the end, but most important of all: we make it work. I can honestly say that I'm happy in love.
If you're interested, my first-ever happiness case study covered my relationship in a lot of detail.
