CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
There are days where you do not want to do something. The best way to deal with this is to develop discipline and have the mindset that you will do it anyway. Consider this, the best thing to do is to procrastinate the procrastination. In other words, you can take a day off tomorrow, but chances are tomorrow will come, and you will decide to keep grinding. If there is something you do not want to do, it probably means you should do it. Nothing is free after all.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Pride is a double edged sword. It can be used for good or bad. It is probably the source of many foolish moments and mistakes we have made. However, if we can learn to harness or bridle our pride, we can begin to direct it to work For us, instead of Against us. The challenge is to start learning when your pride gets out of line and how reign it back in.
MOLESKIN:
Great day of work. There are a lot of Cheetah’s here that killed it on the Sprints. I’m pretty sure Woodshack was feeling the heat.
