"Obedience is central to becoming,being,and remaining happy."    
  -David A. Bednar 


This quote is trying to tell us that being happy revolves around obedience, but is this really true. What if they're making you do something that you do not want to do but because you have to be obedient you have to do it but it has nothing to do with you. Then how can you really be happy like that? Im not saying not to listen to what people tell you but to also do what you think is going to make you happy.

“Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.”   -Benjamin Franklin

It’s like the saying goes “early bird gets the worm”, my mom has always enforced the rule that when you sleep earlier you wake up early and you get all of things done early in the morning. I agree with this quote but sometimes I do like to get a little sleep more once in a while but I hate sleeping till late, I think the latest I get up would be 8 or 8:30. When you get up early you have the opportunity to watch the sunrise or hear the birds chirp when everyone else is asleep.

The answers to these questions will determine your success or failure.

1.   Can people trust me to do what’s right? YES!

2.  Am I committed to doing my very best? YES!

3.  Do I treat people the way I want to be treated? Sometimes

 -Lou Holtz

These questions may be the importance of life because these questions make you actually think about what you want to do with your life and if you are capable of doing those things. I am committed to becoming a great person and I think that people can trust me to do what is right instead of what is wrong. Sometimes I do tend to treat people a little bad but now I know that I need to change that. If I change the last thing about me I think that I am on the right path to becoming a more successful person.
