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

Thomas S. Monson

Reflection: What I think about this quote is that its a very good quote and  that it's very true. Our business in life shouldn't be or isn't trying to be better than everyone else or get ahead of them because that not what we should be aiming for. We should be aiming to be better ourselves and get ahead of ourselves in everything we do. Also we shouldn't be wasting time to get ahead of people because we may need help ourselves.

"True wealth is of the heart, not of the purse." 

Og Mandino 

Reflection: This is a really good quote. Being rich in money doesn't mean you're rich at the heart. You can be miserable and very unhappy but still have a lot of money. You can appear to be the happiest person in the world but in reality you could be the saddest. Being wealthy of the heart means that you receive love, give love, and show love. It means that you don't need all the money in the world you just have to do what God wants from you.  If you put him first in all that you do, He will supply what you need. That is why you won't need to accumulate treasures in the earth but you accumulate treasures in the heavens.

I don’t want to do that I actually want a fast career.

"Real wealth is not so much what we have as what we are." 

Sterling W. Sill

Reflection: This quote is true because it really don't matter what we have, but what we are the matter. You might be the riches person on the planet but what are you if you act like somebody you're not or like a horrible person. Also we should care about being wealthy not in money but in personality and obedience.
