“ I hated poverty. Poverty is more of a choice than anything else, and I can change that (poverty). It depends upon how hard I want to work , and I decided that I would change it.” Dr. Ben Carson

Your future and what it turns out to be is all on you. To me this quote makes me think on how choices can impact your life no matter how big or small they are. It’s not only those choices but also the effort you put into it. What Ben Carson wanted to do is ensure that we don’t give up so easily. In other words not because we are poor or of a low income family will we stay like that forever. We have to choose the right and make the right choices for ourselves. An example of this would be deciding to go to college after high school, this would help you by making your future brighter. I learned a lot from this quote but the main thing was if you want to get somewhere you must just work hard. If people tell you that’s impossible, they are lieing to you. I say this because in this life you can change things you decide on whether it’s for a positive or negative effect.  In conclusion don’t let where you come from or what people say about you be the reason why you don’t accomplish your dreams.There is no known limit to those who have a dream or a little bit of an imagination.  

“ It’s not about how to achieve your dreams. It’s about how to lead your life. If you lead your life the right way, the karma ( good results, destiny, fortune, good luck) will take care of itself. The dreams will come to you.” Dr. Randy Pausch

When they ask you what the benefits of choosing the right may be, well this is the answer. Choosing the right will make your life easier because the only thing you will get in return are good things. Now wouldn’t that be nice! Sometimes we think on revenge or just receiving and not giving. That is not how karma works,you have to be good and do the right thing no matter how hard it gets that’s how karma is testing you. You have to show karma that you’re ready because all you do has been done rightly. There are many obstacles in life and sometimes the right thing isn’t the first thing that comes into our mind but if we practice this habit we can get use to it. We all have a life and we get to choose on how to live it by making the right decisions you're on the right direction. An example would be how Emily is always choosing the right and good things happen to her. She’s a very sweet and happy child. As you can see because she does the right thing she’s living a great life. I admire her.

"He that walketh with wise men shall be wise:but a companion of fools shall be destroyed." - Proverbs 13:20
To me this reminds me of the types of friendships you can have. There can be good ones that can bring great things. And there can be bad ones that can bring bad things.It's like you get what you choose in some sense. This reminds me of middle school the first week back to school everything was new and it was time to make a choice. When it comes to making new friends in a different place it really does challenge you. It's hard sometimes to choose the right group of friends because you may think there nice but in the end they were bad desguised as good. So what I'm trying to say is that when your choosing your friends think about it first. Think about how life would be when they are invoved in it.  Overall friends are suppose to be there for you and help you when you doubt yourself.We sometimes make mistakes when we choose these influences but as long as you learn not to make them again you'll be okay. So choose your friends so that they have a positive impact on you instead of a negative one.An example of this would be in middle school i chose the right friends. I know this because they always helped me and encouraged me to do great. If i would have chosen bad friends then i wouldn't have the support i had and i don't know what i would have turn out to be.

"when obedience becomes our goal, it is no longer an irratation; instead of a stumbling block, it becomes a building block ." - James E. Faust
To me this mean that once you get use to being obediant it becomes simple to you. In other words when you are obediant it becomes like a part of you and then you get use to. You get so use to it that it's something you automaticaly do. So what i think Mr. Faust is trying to say is that to practice obedience and it will become a natural part of you. That's what he means when he says  that it won't be a stumbling block but a building block, because you can't stumble on something that your great at. so practice obedience and it will get easier to follow the rules. It may be rough to be obedient but once you get the hang of it will be a piece of cake. Don't pressure yourself in trying to be obedient from thr next day to the other. Try be doing small steps, as in following the rules one rule at a time.Remember practice makes perfect and if you try to be obedient you will become an expert on it.
In the words of James E. Faust "when obedience becomes our goal, it is no longer an irratation; instead of a stumbling block, it becomes a building block ." i leave you to think about it.
Example : i sometimes get irratated in being obedient but im going to try. I believe that what james is saying is true. I can prove this by remembering my cousins. They always listen to their parents and their so use to it that it's who they are now.

“Obedience is central to becoming, being, and remaining happy.” David Bednar

Well this success statement of the day is hard to explain because in order to understand it you must do it. So let’s see everybody wants to be happy but we can’t never really find the key in obtaining it. So what Mr. Bednar is suggesting is that if you want to obtain that happiness you must be obedient. You must listen to yourself before you act. You must listen to yourself so that you’ll be able to do what’s right. In other words as long as you listen you will be happy. As long as you follow the rules and you choose to listen you will be happy. We all want happiness and if you're looking for a way to obtain it try David Bednar’s method. You may be surprise bey the results it can give you.so try it today be obediant and you will find that “ Obedience is central to becoming, being, and remaining happy.” David Bednar.

Example : If i listen to my parents and i follow their rule they will be happy with my behavior. If they are happy they will want to reward me with something that i want. As you can see because i was obedient i got rewarded and this made me happy.

"Choosing the right is always the right thing to do." Alex Linares
To me this statement means that you can never go wrong when you do right and choosing the right is the right thing to do.So to be more patent about this success statement of the day we shall think about it's meaning more deeply.Other than choosing thee right i came up with the idea that this statement is trying to tell the person who reads it that it's always best if you do the right thing. Maybe choosing the right isn't always the best solution for you but mr.linares states that even though you wouldn't like to it's always your best choice and the right thing to do. In other words people sometimes decide to make bad choices but is that right. At that moment  they don't really think about but later on when there are consequense the regret their choice. so if you choose the right their won't be any futher consequences that affect you. This is because you did the right thing and when you do the right thing nothing can affect you. There's no guilt in the choice you made just the satisfaction that since you choosed the right there is nothjing that can go wrong. So remember before you act always think about choosing the right. don't forget "choosing the right is always the right thing to do."by Alex linares.
Example: If i choose the right and decide to do my chores then watch t.v my  parents are proud of me that i listened. after words i don't have to worry about getting in trouble for not doing what i was told.

"obedience is the great test of life." Thomas S. Monson
 when i read this quote i think that it's meaning is that in life you are tested. you can either break the rules or follow them. well, sometimes by mistake we may not think things thoroughly and so we choose to bend the rules. were not perfect we make mistakes but we shouldn't make them often. every opportunity you get to follow the rules do it. you'll feel good and their won't be negative consequences that haunt you.so, i guess to me what thomas was trying to tell me was that there may be a time in life when you feel stuck and their may be too choices the easy one or the hard one. if the easy way out is the wrong way just  fight yourself through the hard way because it may be the right way. Its better to work hard and do the right once. then do the wrong thing the easy way and then redo it again because it was done improperly the first time.might as well get it over with...right so choose the right way stick to the rules even if it's the hardest choice you make.so remember following the rules may be challenging but you can do it.
example; once i had to choose between going outside to play or following my mom's rules and staying outside to finish my h.w. thanks to her i finished it even though i din't go outside i got a good grade the next day. i was proud of my self for making the right choice because it pays off.

"decisions determine destiny'' Thomas S. Monson

To me this quote tells me that it all starts with a decision, a choice and whatever you choose will determine your future or destiny. Lets say if you make a wrong decision and you don't correct yourself your future may be affected by that one decision. So i guess the thing that's best for us is to make the right decisions so that our future may be as bright as our choices. This quote is really helpful to me because it's like a reminder that we should always think before we make a decision. Before you make you next big decision you have to stop for a moment and think about it. Ask yourself is this what you  truly want to do or are you just doing just because. I'm not telling you to overthink the situation because sometimes overthinking a problem can make it worse. I'm just suggesting  that you think about it once and actually spend some time on that thought. I'm saying this because you may never know what that one decision can do your destiny. Remember this "decisions determine destiny."Thomas S. Monson.

Example: If i were to make the decision to not do my homework then in the end i'll end up failing my class. so by making that decision i determine my destiny.
