CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I’m still focused on my goal of being positive this year.  It’s not been easy.  Most outside influences are not going to be positive.  It’s bad for their business.  I have to look internally and within my immediate sphere – me, my family, my friends, my work, my F3 brothers, my community, etc.  I may not be able to directly affect the global or even national narrative, but I can affect the narrative on my level in how I live my life and, in doing so, perhaps affect a larger scale indirectly through others that I impact along the way (e.g., my kids or even some random stranger).  Regardless, whatever my plans are (or whatever happens whether planned or not) and whatever I do (or don’t do), I’m going to try to be positive and find peace knowing that God is in control and is guiding my way.  See Proverbs 16:9 (“We can make our plans, but the Lord determines our steps.”).

MOLESKIN:
We did 100 SSHs, 100 burpees, 100 pull-ups, 100 curls, and 100 LBCs (plus a few other things) before 6:15 a.m.  How many people can say that?  How many people can say that they did that much work by the end of the day?

Prayers for Ribbed’s wife and family
