COT:
Show and Tell with Steam: New tat: “Temporary sacrifice for the greater good.”

3 components to this:
– Time: You have a specific # of days of life, no more no less. There’s nothing you can do to add to those days or subtract from them. Time is also the only non-renewable resource.
– Sacrifice: There are opportunities everyday to sacrifice things for the ones you love (big and small things). What are you willing to sacrifice for the things you love?
– Greater Good: What sacrifices are you willing to make for the greater good? Who or what is the greater good for you?

Here’s the peak of temporary sacrifice for the greater good: God sending his son to die and take our place on the cross so we could be redeemed and have access to our Heavenly Father. It was a temporary sacrifice for the greater good. The greater good? Us. God’s immense love for us activated this temporary sacrifice.

So here’s a takeaway – think about how you can live out temporary sacrifice in your life today, this week, this month, and this year.

COUNT: 22
WARMUP: Charmin had us doing all kinds of things that unnerved us before even getting to The Thang.
THE THANG: Charmin took us to three different pavilions where we were crushed with his mesmerizing and crushing exercises. We took CMU size boulders to the first pavilion and he made us raise and swing those things around until are arms could no longer take it.
High-Heels took over after the third pavilion of exercises by Charmin. High-Heels took us to the Caribbean parking lot where we ran from 6 o’clock counter clockwise to 9 o’clock stopping at 3, 12 and 9 o’clock to do various exercises. We did this about a million times until we were barely breathing. Lilydipper took us from there back to the 1st Pavilion to grab those doggone boulders that Charmin wore us out with. We had to go to the AO parking lot and team up for Doras. Partners did exercises with the dagnab boulders while the other ran around the parking lot, a heaving and a bursting with air until partners traded places. We weren’t done after we put the boulders back. Lily made us run various sprints (Bernie, High Knees, etc.) until we had stumble to the pavilion for the BOM.
MARY: We were so beat down what we didn’t have the time nor ability to do the Mary.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Convergence at Big Ball on January 20!!

3. It is a line of demarcation.
4. It is acceptance of pain.
5. It is release.
6. It is invigoration.
7. It is celebration.
Also, prayers for F6 on vocational search, prayers for those heading back to school or college, and praise for the health of Matlock’s nephew, John.

Atomic Habits by James Clear
The 3rd Law – Make It Easy
“Get your reps in”
Study of London cab drivers knowing the roads showed that the hippocampus (spatial memory) decreased when retired. Like weight training
Repeated motions decrease difficulty and become action. Active practice vs. passive learning
Put in your reps is the most critical step. Show up! Make them mean something.
