"Obedience is central to becoming, being and remaining happy"

David A Bendar

Being obedient guarantees many things such as the fact that if you comply with rules you will gain more freedom maybe even be rewarded for it with a gift. Being obedient keeps you out of trouble, being out of trouble is a pretty great feeling. Being obedient such as doing all your schoolwork will lead you to college , which will lead to a great career, means a successful life, which means a happy life. If you are disobedient such as to law you will end up behind bars, with no freedom what so ever, you will be away from your family lose contact with them and that will not lead to happiness that will lead you into having a very miserable life. Why make your or someones elses day unpleasant just choose to be obedient and you will be happy. 

Part 2

Life planning goals reflection

The act of actually thinking about we wanted and writing them down having a basis made them seem so much easier to achieve they didnt seem impossible to me anymore. I did write down a lot of long term goals and very few short term goals so I achieved very few so far such as making it into a sport, finishing book, etc. I will let you know how the rest goes but so far I think I am heading in a direction in which I will complete all of my life long goals. I agree to read and ad on to my long list of goals every single day for the rest of my life. 

Class Reflection

1.What did you like best about this class?

What I liked best about this class was the inspiring quotes I enjoyed learning new life lessons that inspired me to be a better person. Not only was this class used to learn more about certain software it also helped guide us although many would like to disagree. I liked the fact that we were pushed to be better not mentally but spiritually. I also really enjoyed learning about different medical careers I didnt know that there were so many branches. It did open up mind to think more specifically into what I really want to do when I grow up. 

2.What did you dislike about this class?

What i disliked most about this class was the fact that although I liked the quotes some of them were very similar so I kind of kept repeating myself with certain reflections. As well as with the medical fields some of them were very hard to find. 

3.What can you recommend to improve the class?

I recommend that you teach more about the computer software instead of just the basics although they do help I must say. With the medical fields maybe you could give us a website to find all of these things in. When it comes to the student success statement change it up a bit to create more of a variety that students could connect to. 

4. What will you always remember about this class?

I will never forget about choosing the right it is engraved in my mind it will always be there guiding me and I do really thank you for that you gave me a new sense of direction. I already knew which way to go you just assured me that I was taking the right road.

"The more obedient we are, the more freedom we have"

Boyd K. Packer 

This is very true when one is obedient with rules that person who set the rules will trust them enough to allow them to do more. For example if your parents have a strict rule of being home by 9:00 get home at that time and they will see that you are responsible and will let you go out again but say you get home at 11: that trust will go down the drain and you will lose that.  

Obedience

compliance with an order, request, or law or submission to another's authority.
compliance, acquiescence, tractability, amenability

Example: An example can be not drinking until your 21 you are being obedient to the law.

"You can't hire someone else to do your push-ups for you"

Jim Rohn

It is not possible for someone else to do your work for you, because if you didnt do it yourself then it wouldnt be your work it would be the work of the person you  hired to do it. You might get credit for it but you will learn nothing therefore the score you get wont count because you will have not learned anything. Such as taking the SAT'S you can hire someone to take them for you but that will  lead you to being a liar and you wont take the grade that you actually deserve. Do your own work not only will you learn from it, it will make you a better person.

Summary

Abraham Lincoln was once offered both whiskey and tobacco by one of his colonels, he stopped him right in the middle of his sentence, tell him a story. It went like this his mother was very ill when abe was only 9 years old, she knew she was not going to make it. So she made her son take a vow never to smoke tobacco or drink whiskey in his life. As years went by Lincoln kept his promise so he refused the colonels offer. The colonel admired Lincoln for this wishing he could do the same. Lincoln responded with " its a matter of integrity."
