“Obedience is the great test of life.” – Thomas S. Monson

Reflection: 

Obedience is the great test of life because it reflects your true identity. It reflects how you treat other and how other will treat you. Obedience can be shown in the way you act or speak to others. Your obedience will be rewarded not with what you want but with what you deserve. Obedience takes hard work but in the end it’ll be worth it. Obedience can gain trust and respect from other towards you. It takes all of you to be obedient in everything you do but you won’t regret it. Choose the right in everything you do no matter what others think.

“Courage is being scared to death and doing the right thing anyway.” –Chae Richardson

Reflection: courage to me means to stand up when everyone else is too scared to stand for the right decision. Courage is that tiny voice in our heads that we tend to ignore when we know were going to do something wrong. You might be scared to stand up for what you believe is right but you don’t know the difference it can make. The decision to stand up for what is right can lead for even more than you expected to stand up with you, it takes a courageous one to lead the rest. Be the leader of those who are too afraid to speak up and teach them to have courage as well. We all have fears, and we all need to overcome them with courage. If you only knew what you’re scared of, will actually make you stronger. Fear is a word that stays deep in our minds and doesn’t let our potential show. You’re stronger than you think. Choose the right.

“He who walks with the wise grows wise, but a companion of fools suffers harm.” –A Proverb

Reflection:

As I’ve grown up I have had many friends and some have stayed and some have gone. I can admit that I did have friends that wanted to choose wrong and would pressure me to do it with them. It’s hard to find a friend that accepts that you do good and that will encourage you to keep doing it. Out all of my friendships I myself have grown wiser because I’ve learned to walk alone. I’d prefer to walk alone than to walk with a bunch of fools who only do wrong. I’ve had to let go of friends that did wrong for my own benefit because I didn’t want to end up like them. I know I don’t walk alone because I know a mighty God that walks with me and has always guided me in the friends I should have. I’ve learned that it’s better to walk alone and do what’s right and eventually someone will follow than to walk in a crowd where I’m putting my life in danger. Choose wisely on the friends you have and every decision you make.

“You can’t hire someone else to do your push-ups for you” – Jim Rohn

Reflection:

We choose our goals because we are going to pursue them. It must be us who pursue our own goals; it’s up to us not anybody else. We as people always try to depend on others to do things for us but in reality your friend isn’t going to reach your life goal, you must do it. We must take the step of courage and go after our goals and just try to send someone else while we’re in our comfort zone. We need to stand up and take action for our goals. For example I can’t make my friend do my homework just to get a good grade, I need the practice. I’m not going to send someone to go to college and study my profession for me. I can’t make someone go and work for me and earn the money for me. I must believe that I am capable of reaching my goal and take that step of saying I won’t give up until I succeed. 

Everyone is capable of reaching their goals if they put their mind and effort to it. Choose the right.
