"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.

 ”Education is the latch key to success in life " Gordon B. Hinckley 

To me this means that in order to succeed in life you must become educated in different ways. In other words in life it's all about learning and you can never know enough, it's impossible to know everything. That's why Gordon is trying to tell the reader that success starts with education. If your get your education then you will know things and when you know things you have the advantage that people with education don't. Education is like a super power, it helps you overcome obstacles and sometimes it even challenges you to see if would show perseverance. You see if you don't get your education you won't be able to succeed in life. If you really were to think of it everything requires you to use your knowledge. If you don't have knowledge how are you going to succeed in completing the task at hand. Overall education is really important and if you have the chance to learn, take it. Some people don’t have that advantage like you just think about that and I want you to think about how education is going to help you succeed today. 

  Example: I’m in the 9^th grade and thanks to education I have learned many things that I couldn’t have known without it. One of my success stories is that thanks to my education I have received many certificates of accomplishments that make me feel proud.
