" You have brains in your head,

Obedience

"When obedience becomes our goal, it is no longer an irritation; instead of a stumbling block, it becomes a building block." 


James E. Faust 
Obedience helps build us up. When we strive for obedience we'll stop getting irritated and it'll be something we're used to and what we're striving for. It won't be an obstacle or stumbling block, its a building block meaning it'll help us become a better person and obedience is something that'll help us go through life and grow. Obedience will be part of who we are if we make it a goal and reach it.

I like jobs like these that help people and a cardiologist might already be one of the options on what I want to become.

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

David Bednar 

For David the key to becoming, being, and remaining happy is obedience. Which means paying attention and always following directions. I guess he is really happy with life right now because he is always obedient. Always doing the right thing sure always makes us happy because we know we're doing the right thing. Perhaps being obedient is central to becoming, being, and remaining happy but i think finding yourself and knowing who you are is also central to becoming, being, and remaining happy. Also having freedom and not letting no one tell you how to be or how to dress because it's you and not them, and that your freedom.

“Obedience sums up our entire duty”
download (5).jpg
Hosea Ballou

What i think Hosea is trying to say in this quote is that our responsibilities are followed by obedience and doing our duties. I think one of our main duties is being obedient itself. That’s our greatest duty being obedient and respecting people around you. The duty we need to finish everyday is being obedient, it sums it all up.

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

Boyd K. Packer

What this quote means to me is that the more we follow the rules and do what we're suppose to do the more liberty we'll have to do the things we want to do. When we're obedient and listen it makes us a better person and good things will come. For example, if a little kid wants to play outside or go somewhere but their mother says they have to do something first in order to do that, then they do it and they have the freedom to go outside and play or go somewhere. So if we're more obedient then we'll have freedom to do things.

" What you are as a person is far more important than what you are as a basketball player." 

John Wooden

 What i think this quote means is that being a basketball player just like he was back then didn't mean that was all he was. Being you and letting people know who you are is far more important than what they only know you for. I think while you're our there playing you become a different person. But the person who is outside of a game and not playing is more important. You may not be the same person you are when you're out there trying to defeat your enemies. The person you should really focus on is the person you are when you're outside of the game. Him being a basketball player wasn't all there was to him. 
Athletic Trainer

Duties and Responsibilities: The basic role of an Athletic Trainer is preventing and treating injuries of athletes. Once an athlete is injured, the trainer often works daily to help that athlete rehabilitate to full strength. Trainers educate players on proper techniques in exercise, and in their sport, to avoid injury. While trainers work with coaches and athletes daily, they typically are under the supervision of a licensed physician. 

Salary: $40,302

Education: The minimum requirement for most athletic trainer position is a bachelor’s degree, but many of these professionals have a graduate degree. The curricula include science and health-related subjects such as nutrition, kinesiology, biomechanics, and exercise physiology.
Experience requirements include supervised time in clinics and internships, which may be with a college or local professional sports teams.

Reflection: I wouldn’t like to be an athletic trainer because I’m not into sports and I’m not athletic. Id like to have a job in something that I love to do and have a passion for and taking care of athletic isn’t something I would like to do.

" Your past is not your potential." 

What i think this quote means is that what you've achieved in the past is not your full potential. Whether you've failed or achieved something you have so much more to give. With time we change, we gain knowledge about things so who we were in the past isn't really us anymore. Your potential expands and increases. When you really want something or really want to be something or someone youll give it your all. We will give so much more than what we gave in the past.

" Relentless, Repetitive Self-talk is what changes our self-image. "
Denis Waitley


What this quote by Denis says to me is that we could change our self image by telling ourselves positive things. That if you have a bad self image, by repeating positive things you like about yourself you'll start to believe that. You will believe it and have a whole different point of view about yourself. You have to encourage yourself to do best. How people view us shouldn't matter, how you view yourself is most important. Once you keep self-talking yourself you'll start believing and start being all the positive things you tell yourself .
