Student Success Statement: Boyd K. Packer

"The key to freedom is obedience. The more obedient we are, the more freedom we have."
-Boyd K. Packer

  This means that the more we listen the more we are going to be able to do. When you are obedient you listen to what you are told to do. With being obedient you are given freedom to do things, like going out or rewards. When you are disobedient you don't listen to what you are told to do and this brings consequences. With being disobedient instead of gaining freedom, it gets taken away like being stuck at home or no rewards. That is the point that this quote is trying to get across to us.

  There are many examples of what being obedient and disobedient can cause. For example, maybe you parents told you to clean your room so for doing this you are allowed to go out. Another example of being obedient would be you getting good grades and for that you get that new phone you have been wanting. An example of disobedient would be you not finishing your homework which would cause you to get a bad grade. Being disobedient can also be you not doing your chores which would cause you being grounded. In conclusion, being obedient can bring freedom in many ways unlike being disobedient.
