Here is something I found from the Sports Business Journal and it is part of a commencement speech by Lou Holtz, former Head Football Coach of Notre Dame and commentator on ESPN.
"...The people we miss are those that are significant and add value to other people’s lives. …
You want to be happy for an hour, eat a steak. You want to be happy for a
day, play golf. You want to be happy for a week, go on a cruise — going
on a cruise to me is like being in jail except you have the chance to
drown. You want to be happy for a month, buy a new car. You want to be
happy for a year, win the lottery. You want to be happy for a lifetime,
make sure you add value to other people’s lives."

This has lots of good advice, and I have tried to learn from it.
