CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I have been struggling with my relationship with my daughter recently. it has caused a lot of frustration and challenges at home. I shared some of the struggles I’m dealing with but also shared with the pax the importance of remembering that our words matter to our kids and that often mimic our words and actions. Be mindful of what you say, words can not be taken back.
MOLESKIN:
We held our first OTB PM PT at the Arsenal Wednesday night ( Ok YHC was the only one there BUT there is a huge opportunity for us to have a regular PM PT session for the Arsenal)

More CMU’s have been delivered to the new stash, located behind field two in the bushes that line the bridge. Veep personalized some of them for us.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

“Progress means getting nearer to the place where you want to be. And if you have taken a wrong turning, then to go forward does not get you any nearer. If you are on the wrong road, progress means doing an about turn and walking back to the right road; and in that case the man who turns back soonest is the most progressive man.”

Make sure the progress you are aiming to achieve in life is the progress that you need, not the progress you think you want.

As a Man Thinketh

Into your hands will be placed the exact results of your own thoughts; you will receive that which you earn; no more, no less. Whatever your present environment may be, you will fall, remain, or rise with your thoughts, your Vision, your Ideal. You will become as small as your controlling desire; as great as your dominant aspiration.  – James Allen

All that we are is the result of which we have thought. The mind is everything. What we think, we become. – Buddha

Your disposition will be suitable to that which you most frequently think on; for the soul is, as it were, tinged with the color and complexion of its own thoughts…

Your life is what your thoughts make it. – Marcus Aurelius

Difference between cows and Rino’s. Rino’s are driven, audacious, focused and consistently charging towards success. Cows are content sitting in the field chewing their cud. F3 is about building leadership. Leaders are not cows they are Rino’s. Be a Rino.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
First agriculture, and then industry, changed two fundamental things about the human experience. The accumulation of personal property allowed people to make more and more individualistic choices about their lives, and those choices unavoidably diminished group efforts toward a common good. And as society modernized, people found themselves able to live independently from any communal group. A person living in a modern city or a suburb can, for the first time in history, go through an entire day—or an entire life—mostly encountering complete strangers. They can be surrounded by others and yet feel deeply, dangerously alone.

From Tribe – Sebastian Junger

MOLESKIN:
That’s 210 burps for those keeping count.
