CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
We have seen many prominent television and movie figures recently accused, and some rightfully so, of sexual misconduct within their work place. As men we must guard our wives and loved ones. Never put yourself in a situation where you can be accused or gossiped about because you were seen with another woman. Go with a group, never meet alone, keep situational awareness at all times. Do not laugh at those whose sin is in the national spot light.

    CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
    As men, some of us have anger issues frequently, while most of us have anger issues at least some of the time.   We must learn to control our anger.  Anger is not a bad thing in itself.  It tells us something is wrong.  We need to logically fix what is wrong, go to others for help, or pray to God about the matter. What we don’t need to do is become hostile or lose control of our emotions.  Through prayer and truly asking God to work with us, we can overcome anger issues.  We can also go to our brothers if we have an anger issue and ask for their guidance and help.ANNOUNCEMENTS:
    3rd F at Outlook on December 9, 8:15 AM to 9:00 AM, immediately after Saturday Morning Workout at Big Ball.  Special Workout tomorrow in Mechanicsville at 2:00 PM , leading youth living near that area.  See announcement on group me.

    Confucius Say……Better a diamond with Flaw than a pebble with out, The gem cannot be polished with out friction, NOR man perfected with out trials. You get it, IRON SHARPENS IRON!
    MOLESKIN:
    I love silly quotes, Confucius quotes, simple words of wisdom.etc..What is comes down to is that we are not perfect but if you think you are or you think you will never be, you will NEVER grow and get better as a man! A man with out Fault will never grow so don’t be afraid to fail. Last week, I asked the guys to think about their WHY? Why are you coming out to a free workout early in the morning? When it gets tough, what motivates us to push through the suck? WELL, Fins came up to me today after the workout and shared his WHY with me. I was grateful to hear his WHY. I just met FINS and he came to me an opened up to me. That means a lot to me and is what I love about F3. Being a part of F3, we all know and have an unconditional bond with one another, even if we don’t know each other(YET). I believe we all have a similar WHY. Thank you FINs for sharing with me and I look forward to getting to know you more.
