I love the scripture in the Book of Mormon, 3 Nephi 13:19-21. It says:
19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and thieves break through and steal;
20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal.
21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
It is so true. We will not be able to take our cars or our homes with us, but we will be able to take our knowledge. What is it that you treasure? Do you treasure the things of the world or do you treasure things that you can take with you to the Eternities? The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saint's really emphasizes the importance of gaining as much knowledge as we can in this life. I know that we need to do all we can to learn as much as we are able to. Where is your treasure at?
This is a wonderful talk about where your treasure lies. It is by Michael John U. Teh: https://www.lds.org/general-conference/2014/04/where-your-treasure-is?lang=eng

I love the video below that Elder M. Russel Ballard gives. He talks about how to have a better and happier life. It is very applicable to us today.
