But happiness isn't always easy, and we don't always know what makes us happy or unhappy on a day-to-day basis.
Thankfully, science is here to help. We've rounded up some of the best available research on why people become happy and how they stay that way.
A key caveat: One study does not a scientific fact make, and many of these studies identify correlations but don't trace causation. That means many of these may be habits of happy people, rather than things that actually generate happiness. And plenty of studies apply only to a particular group of people. There's no magic trick that will suddenly make you a happier person, but you should read this list as science-backed suggestions that can help.
Without further ado, here are the best science-backed ways to be happy.
