How to be happy

Mosiah 2:41

"And moreover, I would desire that ye should consider on the blessed and happy state of those that keep the commandments of God. For behold, they are blessed in all things, both temporal and spiritual; and if they hold out faithful to the end they are received into heaven, that thereby they may dwell with God in a state of neverending happiness. O remember, remember that these things are true; for the Lord God hath spoken it."

People who keep the commandments truly are happier than those that do not. Keeping the commandments gives us confidence before God and helps us feel comfortable in holy places. This gives us happiness. We're happy when we please our Father and do good things. When we don't we're filled with regret, shame, and feelings of loss. Those are not desirable feelings!
