CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
The other day my sister made a super long Facebook post about her views on Covid-19.  It was so long I didn’t even take time to read it all but I knew where she was going and what she was trying to do.  It was written as an attempt to convince someone to agree with her point of view.  I likely agreed with what she said, as we have very similar stances on things, but my thought was, “whose mind are you actually going to change?”  No one goes on to Facebook to have their mind changed which made me realize that sometimes things are just best left unsaid.  Even if something is 100% true, it doesn’t always make it appropriate.  As leaders, we like to speak up and be heard, but sometimes the best thing you can do as a leader is to keep your mouth shut.  So please take the time before you speak, before you post, to ask, is this the appropriate time and/or place for this and will it benefit anyone?  If not then lead through silence.
MOLESKIN:
About 5 runners passed me when I was setting out the papers marking the exercises before the beatdown.  Only one runner passed us during the beatdown.  Baby Weight hulked up and broke his CMU.
