"Obedience is the great test of life."
-Thomas S. Monson

I feel like this is a quote everyone should live by because it is not only important for yourself, but for everyone. Imagine if everyone followed the rules to no kill, do drugs, or hurt other people? The world would be so much better, but we don't. That is why be have murders and homicides. People do not obey the rules and that is why they do what they do. If you are obedient, you shouldn't have any type of problem in life, and this is what this great man is trying to tell us, but we do not listen.

"The more obedient we are, the more freedom we have."
-Boyd K. Packer

 I think what he means is that if you follow directions, you can do what ever you want. For example, if your mom tells you not to play with fire, don't do it. Do something else, and she won't get mad. People do not follow rules, that is why we are strict. If people followed rules we wouldn't need police officers etc.

" I would prefer even to fail with honor,
than win by cheating."
-Sophocles
 I think what this great philosopher  means is that, true honor means to always keep trying without everh giving up, because as soon as you cheat or give up, you lose all your honor, as a man, and as a person. Honor is the only thing that helps us, as humans, to be able to stay friends and respect eatch other. Without honor, this world would not be how it is right now. We would have many more wars every day, every year, and it would impact us so much.

Student Success Statement
Attitude is the mind's paintbrush. It can color any situation.


What I think this saying means is that everything is white, and your brain is the paint. You can have a good attitude and paint it colorful, with cheerful colors. That means that you want to be happy, On the other hand, you can  paint it with gloomy colors, like black and brown. With those colors, you might be sad, angry, depressed. Your mind can do a lot of powerful things, but your attitude can stop it from doing so, or empower it to do so.

Student Success Statement
"He who walks with the wise grows wise, but a companion of fools suffers harm."
-A proverb

I think what this means is that whoever you hang out with, is who you are going to become like. For example if you are a good kid, but you start hanging out with stoners and retards, you are going to become like on of them, eventually. On the other hand, if you hang out with kids who are always studying and being respectful, you will eventually be like them, smart and respectful. "Friends" have a great influence on you even if you don't notice it, but by the time you do, you will see how much you have changed, and it could be for good or bad, it all depends on your choices.

I also feel like if you are going to school, it should at least be for something that is worth your time and effort.

Student Success Statement
" You can't hire someone else to do your push-ups for you."
-Jim Rohn

I think what this great man means is that you HAVE to do your own things. You can't go all your life making other do people do what YOU have to do. That doesn't make sense, because when you truly are alone and you need to do something, its just going to be you having to do your own things, no one else. It is better to always do your own things so that you can become strong and versatile. At the end it is your life, not someone elses.

Integrity

This video was about integrity  and it focused on Abraham Lincoln. He made a promise to his mom before she died that he would never smoke or drink. One day he was walking with his general, and the general told him to smoke or drink with him. Abe told him the story of his mom and the promise, and after he finished telling the story, the general have him his respect for keeping up with the promise no matter what. That is what integrity really is. Keeping up with your promises and always doing what you feel is the right thing to do, and that is exactly what Abraham Lincoln did. I always keep up with my promises and appointments.

"Man's rise or fall, success or failure happiness or unhappiness depends on his attitude... a man;s attitude will create the situation he imagines."
-James Allen

I think what this wise man means is that however you imagine the situation, that is what the outcome will be. For example, if you are always pessimist, at the end, everything will go wrong, and no one will enjoy it. On the other hand if you are always an optimist, you will find that the outcomes will always come out like you imagined them to be, happy and joyous. It all depends on how you deal with things.
