From this perspective, increase of life satisfaction is directly dependent on accomplishing more goals. Cluster analysis of the secondary data from 135 countries revealed that countries with high life satisfaction index were those with high job and standard of living satisfaction supplemented with high exercise of freedom but with less concerned on security. On the contrary, countries with low life satisfaction index is categorized as countries with an average job and security satisfaction but were least satisfied with their standard of living.
