You can think of the commandments as right versus wrong, but it may be more accurate to say that someone who keeps the commandments is more like Christ, and someone who does not keep the commandments is less like Christ. Right or wrong is solely determined based on what the person wants from life. To be like Christ, you need to keep the commandments (i.e., the 10 commandments and Jesus's commandments).
God has a perfect plan for our lives. Since God built the foundations of the earth and heavens, and since He is the father of our spirits, then he knows exactly what life will be best for our eternal progression. Everyone learns and grows from this life, and you can accelerate that growth by learning from God, praying to God, and trusting in God. He has a plan for you.
