and remaining happy."

Obedience is the step to becoming and being happy. As simple as it sounds thats how simple it is. Obedicence is the key to everything and espically happiness. When you are obedient to you become  and remain happy. When you are obedient to the people that have authority then you will become a happier person. For example you need to listen to your parents more in order to become a happier person in life.

Student Success Statement 

"When obedience becomes our goal, it is no longer

an irriation; instead a stumbling block , it becomes 

a building block." 

James E. Faust

I really like an agree with this statement by James E. Faust. Obedience should be all of our goals in order to succeed in life. I think obedicence should be our most important goal to achieve. Sometimes we consider it as a stublimg block where we will fall and stumble. But obedience can be way more. It will become a building block to the pyrmaid of success. For example if we have obedience in our goals then we will not fail but rather pass with an excellent A.

"Obedience is the great test of life."

Thomas S. Monson

I really do agree with this statement because obedience is a test in life that can challenge you in someway. It can teach you a lesson like if you should try harder and listened more or you have complete it and mastered it. So it can be either a good or bad response in life. For example if you are not obedient then you have failed and not passed in life just like a test would. Obedience is either you pass it or fail it.

Student Success Statement 

"Obedience... is the primary object 

of all sound education." 

Elizabeth Missing Sewell 

I think the statment of Elizabeth Sewell is stating that obedience is the object of being responsible and respectful in having an education. With obedience you can have all the education you want and is the primary goal of it. I think if you have obedience then you are respectful and responsible. Education's sound must also include obedience. For example if we have obedience towards our peers and older people then we have the sound of education.

"Courage is being scared to death

and doing the right thing anyway."

Student Success Statement 

"Act well your part; there all honor lies." 

Alexander Pope

I think this statement means when you do everything you need to do and do it right that is where you reccieve the Honor. In life you need to do your part and succeed in it so you can recieve the honor you need. Honor lies when you do what you need and act well in doing so. Acting well in your part is where all the honor lies. For example if you are a good, courages, and Respectful person you will end up being faced with honor. Honor is the thing you want in this world.

"I would prefer even to fail 

with honor than win by cheating".

Sophocles

I really like and agree with this statment by Sophocles. If you are cheating and you win deep down inside you are the one that looses. I would like to loose rather than cheat myself. Id rather win by knowing i put all my effort and my determination rather than cheating. If you loose with honor its similar than winning without cheating. Cheating is the wrong thing to do. For example lets say someone takes steriods before a game and ends up winning the game, hes a coward that wins but is cheating himeslf. He won with out honor and without that its nothing.

"Manners maketh man."

William of Wykeham

The statement by William is a very short and straight out statement that sends out one important message. The quote is think its saying is that manners make up a man. The message is if you have manners than that will make you a real man. I really like this quote because it is a very straight forward quote that is true. Muscles or the way you act does not make you a man, rather the manners you have do. For example lets say there is a man with strength and another weak man with manners. The one that will be considered a man is the one with manners because that's way better than strength. I really like this quote.

"Right is Right, even if everyone is

against it; and wrong is wrong, even

if everyone is for it." 

William Penn

I can really relate to this statement by William Penn. Personally i think this is a perfect example for teenagers living in this environment. It could also conclude the fact that it has to do with peer pressure. When you know something is right then you do it. Ignore everybody else because at he end your going to be the mature one doing the right thing. When you know something is bad and people want to do it or even want you to do it then you ignore them and don't do it.

Student Success Statement 

Cowardice asks the question "Is it safe?"

Expediency asks the question "Is it politic?"

Vanity asks the question "Is it popular?" 

But, conscience asks the question, "Is it right?" 

And there comes a time when one must take a 

position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular,

but one must take it because one's conscience tells one that it is right.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. 

I really like this statement by Martin Luther king Jr because it is very realistic and may match up with people in society today.Your conscience knows what is good and what is bad for you. When your conscience says it is the right thing, then you must take a chance and do it. Cowards ask the question is it safe but that wont get you anywhere, Expediency asks it is politic? That wont get you anywhere or help you choose the right. When your conscience says its right then it is and you should just go for it. For example if i wanna make a choice i know i can listen to my conscience to do the right thing because it will warn me.

Student Success Statement 

"That which we persist in doing becomes

easier to do, not that the nature of the 

thing has changed but that our power 

to do has increased." 

Ralph Waldo Emerson 

I can really relate to this statement by Ralph Waldo Emerson because it is entirely true. If we put our self's in the test in order to accomplish something that is difficult then we will conquer it and become more successful. Its not that in nature it is hard to do so, but the power we put into it is what will make us accomplish the difficult task we are doing. If we want to do something that is very hard for us we have to but our effort and power into it. For example if you like baseball but it is difficult for you, then you put all your effort and power and eventually it will become easier for yourself.
