Usually, the higher the GDP, the higher the standard of living.
GDP per capita
The best measurement for comparing the standard of living between two countries is the GDP in conjunction with the economic growth. GDP stands for Gross Domestic product.
Growth of real GDP per Capita
It is. Think of it this way. If, for sudden reason, Bill Gate moves to Zimbabwe and applies for a Zimbabwe passport, he will increase the GDP of Zimbabwe. However, the standard of living for Zimbabwean may still decrease and still has a high GDP (thanks to Bill Gate's money)
The GDP per capita is used to measure a country's standard of living. It is calculated by dividing the country's GDP by its population, which better allows comparison of GDP between countries.
high standard of living= high GDP and vice versa

Because it takes into account of non-material standard of living while GDP per capita only measures the material standard of living. HDI takes into account of Life expectancy, Literacy rate and GDP/capita.
GDP stands for Gross Domestic Product. It is the sum of consumption, investment, government spending, and net exports. It is used to determine the standard of living of a given country. Typically, the higher the number, the better the standard of living is in that country.

National income
Changes in GDP (Gross Domestic Product) do not necessarily affect standards of living, unless the change is greater than the change in population over the same period. However, changes in GDP per person make more income available per person and, assuming constant shares of GDP, will raise living standards.
