The 3 questions:

1. Can people trust me to do what’s right?
2. Am I committed to doing my very best?
3. Do I treat people the way I want to be treated?
Lou Holtz
“If the answers to these questions are YES, there is no way you can fail.”

I think that people can definitely trust me to do what’s right. I wouldn’t do what’s wrong and suffer the consequence. I would say that I am committed to doing my very best but not fully committed. If I was fully committed then I would actually do anything possible to do my very best. There have been a lot of chances to do my very best but sometimes I don’t take them, and I think that’s what I need to work on. Being fully committed. I always treat people the way I want to be treated. I don’t believe in being unfair. I hate people who are unfair and I dislike people who treat others wrong.

"You can't put a limit on anything. The more you dream, the farther you get. No matter what you set your imagination to, anything can happen." 

Michael Phelps
22 Olympic Medals (18 Gold)

What i think Michael is trying to tell us is that whatever you set your mind to, you can achieve and that anything is possible. The more you dream the more goals you have to achieve and the more hard work you'll put in. If you really set your mind to it anything can happen. Your actions and success is limitless and no one can stop you from achieving your dreams. Just like michael he worked really hard to achieve those 22 medals. He only achieved them because he set his mind to winning them and he dreamt of them and he knew that anything was possible.

"Our very business in life is not to get ahead of others... but to get ahead of ourselves."
Thomas S. Monson

To me this quote means that life isn't a competition in who succeeds the most. You shouldn't try to get ahead of someone and be better than them because then all you're going to be focused on is where they are at, and you'll fall behind. What this quote says to me is that we should do things only for ourselves and not for others or to impress other people. I think it's exploring what you are capable of and making yourself happy. Our business in life is to be a better person and not try to be like anyone else.
