CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
This month I’m trying to express more gratitude for the things i have in my life. While we all can be grateful for F3, what it has done for us and the PAX, i challenged the pax to think of other things we are grateful for.

  • Smuggler-My wife and the change she has made in my realatiohsip with my daughter. We have gone through some hard times, a lot due to my own bad relationship decisions. However my wife has come in and been an amazing force in my life and has made a world of difference.
  • Pinocchio- His son, being a new father has given him a new perspective on life.
  • Veep- His job and the the ability that has provided him to do things for his family.

Take time to let those around you know you’re grateful for them.

“Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be killed. Every morning a lion wakes up. It knows it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve to death. It doesn’t matter whether you’re a lion or gazelle. When the sun comes up, you’d better be running.”

Keep grinding everyday and remember what you’re running for. Whether it be to better yourself or others, keep putting in the work consistently every day.
