Q. 1. Do you think that famous people are generally happier 
than ordinary people? 
Answer: 
The problem with the definition of “happiness” is that it just 
has no common definition and meaning that is accepted by all. In fact, 
every individual chooses to define happiness in his/ her own unique way 
the way he/she deems it. 
So, are the famous people are generally happier than ordinary people? 
Well, I would venture to say that being “famous” has nothing to do with 
being “happier” simply because “happiness” is nothing but just a state of 
mind. Of course, famous people are usually more satisfied than the 
average people because their “needs and wants” are easily met at their 
wills. But, unfortunately, we tend to confuse ‘satisfaction’ with 
‘happiness’. However, does that necessarily mean that famous people 
can’t be happier than ordinary people? Well, the answer is, of course, 
they can be, but it will be so not because they are “famous”, but 
because they just “choose” to remain happy with or without having the 
“satisfaction” in life just like the “ordinary” people. 
Q. 2. What qualities does a person need to have in order to be 
famous? 
Answer:
Becoming a famous and “successful” person is not really easy. 
But, a person can become famous in his/her own right by winning 
against all the challenges and battles, thrown at him or her, because of 
carrying certain qualities in his or her life. And, some of these qualities 
are 'passion, persistence (or patience), hard works, positive attitude, 
self-reliance, self-confidence, integrity and rock-strong willpower'. Of 
course, a person also needs to have his or her fair share of “luck” as 
well in order to become famous. But, of all these qualities, I would say 
that “patience” may prove out to be the most important and decisive 
factor in attaining the “fame” as one may need to wait a long time to 
achieve it. However, it is worth mentioning here that if a person’s sole 
intention is to become “famous” by hook or by crook, without 

---

necessarily understanding the “value” of it, the “success” will probably 
be a very “short-lived” matter for him or her at the end of the day.
