There's no device that numerically measures feelings. What do you want me to do, measure my blood pressure when I'm earning my salary?
The topic is about success. To measure success, one must first define it. A person's values and internal state are valid arbiters of determining what success means for them.
I will not accept anyone else's criterion for what a successful life looks like. If I definite is as having certain types of wealth, or having a successful career that's fine. But what if I define success as happiness, or psychological well-being? That is my choice.
