  • Derkins

Rucked back to the AO with just enough time for 30 Flutter Kicks (4ct. – ruck overhead).

Ended up covering 5.7 miles for the morning along with the PT.

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA

3 men today for the ruck but several others were out there taking care of business with their HTL training (Cap’n Crunch, A-Rod, Abort, and Pfeiffer).

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Not much of a BOM this morning, but we enjoyed the fellowship along the ruck. Lots of good mumblechatter about favorite flavors of Gatorade and Powerade (amazing how those conversations start when you’re dead tired and thirsty). In the spirit of Father’s Day weekend, we’re all thankful we have the privilege of being Dads – make the most of the moments you have with your kids and be intentional with your families.

Switch on your Brain – Mind Over Matter

2 Timothy 1:7 – God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of sound mind.   This islLinked to the concept that we are wired for love and natural optimism.

  • Our thought life actually changes our DNA. Thinking and feeling fear, anger, and frustration caused DNA to change shape.  Tightened up, became shorter, and switched off quality expression so individuals in turn felt shut down
  • We can control our reactions to anything
  • Stress level 1 is normal and brings focus. Level 2 and 3 become toxic
  • American Institute of Health Estimates that75-90% of visits to primary care are for stress related problems
  • We cannot control events or circumstances, but you can control your actions.
  • Good news is that this can be reversed by feelings of love, Joy appreciation and gratitude
    • HIV Positive patients that were positive had 300,000 time more resistance than negative patients

 When we operate in our normal love design in God’s image we are able to change the shape of our DNA forever.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
One of the driving forces in our lives are the groups that we associate with.  Having a circle of friends that we can count on and know will support, encourage and provide accountability is essential to our well-being.  There is a lot of focus in the media right now with recent suicides and we all know about the suffering of our servicemen returning from deployment.  The world is a tough place and lots of people are fighting battles that we know nothing about.  I am grateful for F3 and what this group of men mean to me.  Let’s be aware of each other, and the other people in our lives and make sure that everyone knows, without a doubt, that we are there to lift each other up.
