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

David A. Bednar 

This quote means that obedience is the key to happiness. It means that you must obey and live by the rules in order to achieve true happiness. Obedience is what determines whether we become successful or fail. You entire duty in life is determined by obedience. Obedience is the pathway to success, and success will make you happy. Another thing that makes you happy is the way people treat you. If you obey other people who tell you to choose the right thing, they will also obey you. Obedience makes you a good person as well as makes you responsible and respectful. It shows other people the true person you are if you obey the rules. 

Part 2

I am not that far ahead in my goals. I have only achieved a few, not too many. I don't really go after my goals that much, which I should. I need to do a better job of reading my goals everyday so I could remind myself every day what I want to do. Throughout my life time, I promise myself to keep on adding goals every time I have a new one. I will fill up my notebook with things I want to achieve. My goals will be short or long term. Every time I achieve one I will write victory next to it as well. I promise to continue reading my life planning goals everyday for the rest of my life. I also promise that I will go after them until I achieve them.

"Obedience is the great test of life."

Thomas S. Monson 

I think this statement means that in order to pass the test in life you must obey all the rules that have been given to us. This test is the one that determines whether we fail or succeed in life. If someone doesn't abide by the rules they will fail but if someone obeys the rules they will be successful. That is how life testes you; it will see if you obey the rules or not.
