COT:
Regret.
The feeling associated with doing wrong or missing an opportunity. Sometimes causing the.need for repentance.

II Corinthians 7:9-10 NKJV
[9] Now I rejoice, not that you were made sorry, but that your sorrow led to repentance. For you were made sorry in a godly manner, that you might suffer loss from us in nothing. [10] For godly sorrow produces repentance leading to salvation, not to be regretted; but the sorrow of the world produces death.

Ask for forgiveness when you’rewrong. Apologize. Don’t live with regret. Forgive others. Don’t miss opportunities. Put Christ firat, and let him be your guide.

COT:
Consistency:
“Every man’s battle is between what he knows he should do and what he actually does.”
“Small disciplines repeated with consistency every day leads to great achievements gained slowly over time.”

Getting better in 6 months, improving your metrics, is not an overnight thing. Be patient with yourself.
In the same way, be consistent with everything. Set spiritual consistency above all else. Set goals for spiritual, mental, and physical growth.

COT:
We lined up according to age 2 by being told to. We then on the 3rd time didn’t. So we had to pay the tax and line up. The 4,5 time we lined up. We are told that in life you must do this or that and you need to stay in your lane. And in some instances that may be applicable, but in life, if you want to do something or be somebody do it. If you want to accomplish something, do it. Do not let anyone tell you that you can not do it.

Proverbs 17:17
A friend loves at all times, And a brother is born for adversity.

We have been given attributes and gifts from God, which can be used to help our friends and brothers in their time of need. Likewise, they have unique ways to help us. The thing we all need to do is swallow our pride, be vulnerable, and ask for help. If not, we never change. This is one of the many great things about F3. If you are seeing this, you have men in your corner.
