Hello ....
We all know that life is not easy, just because there are many materialistic things we need to cater. We can find love, care apriciation only when you give those to others. I would say the basic elements we need to lead a peaceful life are:
1. Money, the biggest factor
2. Good and supportive Life partner
3. and ethics and disciplined life.
I think if you achieve all these you would pass all your examination very easily.
