I would say first it is important to define what is 'happy'.
Some people say 'if I just drove a lambroghini then I will be happy'... which I think that is a load of bumpikis.
Wealth and fame and all that... it does not bring true happiness.
In fact the most happy people are generally not as well off. There is reason for this.
My tips would be:
1. Get out of debt. Nothing like the stress of payments looming over your head can ruin a persons day.
2. Live simple. Have a simple plan in achieving something of value.
3. The people with the least cannot rely on material goods to make them happpy, mainly because they don't have a lot of material goods. So they rely on something else. What is that something else?
4. Your true happiness is in loving the people around you. Learn to appreciate and love and be grateful for the people around you.
If you train yourself to think in positives--especially about people...That guy has talent... that guy is smart... that girl is pretty... that girl can sing... and to think about the positives of other people this is a start.
You should not think in terms of comparing yourself to them. But rather being truly happy for those people...
You can try to learn about people... the more of a 'learning' attitude you take even from the most seemingly unimportant people it will make you happy.
If you make other people feel happy and important, and wanted and loved... in that process of doing that you will find yourself being more happy. You don't have to do something crazy or obvious, but even just conversations like 'oh wow, is that your baby! oh she is so cute!... wow you must be a great mom! look at her smile!' You cannot fake it though. Your appreciation for others must be real.
I can write a lot of other tips... but be simple, live simple, and love the people around you. Build them up, and in the process of building you will be building yourself too.
