Student Success Statement
"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.

"Obedience sums up our entire duty."
-Hosea Ballou

I think what this great man means is that if you follow directions 100% you will never get in trouble and you can get all the freedom you want while still following directions. for example, if your job is it to guard that house, you have to guard it as part of your duty and as part of your obedience. You can do whatever you want as long as you keep guarding that house. The moment you stop following the rules is the moment you stopped doing you duty.

"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.

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

I think what this great man means is that if you do things fast and good, you will be healthy, rich and smart. For example if you follow the same routine, of waking up, jogging, studying and going to school, you will get adjusted to that routine, making you balanced overall because you are getting the basic things your body asks of you. You will be fit because you jog, you will smart because you study, and you will rich because you are going to school to become something. If everyone were to follow these steps we would be better humans overall.

No I would not like to be one because I feel like this medicine is a fake and I wouldn't want to trick my patients when I know there are better ways to treat an injury/illness with modern medicine/surgery. Most of the practitioners get paid very little and I want to get paid a lot.
