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.

COT: Discussed the Word and Prayer portions of the Q. JOHN PRINE says about one of his best songs Angel of Montgomery): ‘The opening lyric is “I am an old woman, named after my mother…” I was very nervous about singing this in public for the first time. Because I thought that it would come across as too detailed, too amateurish. And I thought there must be a reason for that. I must not be doing it the right way, whatever the right way is.’ Just like with songwriting, there really IS no right way to do a BOM. Just speak about something you have learned, something important to you, something that might help others. Not everyone will respond the same way but I can guarantee that pretty much every one of your brothers will get something out of your message. From Exodus 4: But Moses said to the LORD, “Oh, my Lord, I am not eloquent, either in the past or since you have spoken to your servant, but I am slow of speech and of tongue.” 11 Then the LORD said to him, “Who has made man’s mouth? Who makes him mute, or deaf, or seeing, or blind? Is it not I, the LORD? 12 Now therefore go, and I will be with your mouth and teach you what you shall speak.”

KISS = Keep It Simple Superstar

THE THANG:
Mosey to The Island

(1) 7 Off-Ramps
– Going around the Island counter-clockwise, there are 7 off-ramps / sidewalks to your right
– At each point of contact you’ll rock one of our Xs for today
– Order: Curls, Chest / shoulder presses, flutter kicks, merkins, LBCs, SSH, squats
– You’ll see a cone at the entrance of each of these off-ramps
– Every off-ramp = 7 reps of the exercise on a 1-count (2 for flutter kicks)
– Execute 1 X, and then take a lap around the island
– Then you’ll complete off-ramp 1 again, and then off-ramp 2, then take a lap
– Rinse and repeat this – until you complete all 7 Xs
– 1 (lap), 1 + 2 (lap), 1 + 2 + 3 (lap) – adding another off-ramp each time

(2) 7s Up
– Murder Bunny 7x with your rock – THIS IS A MOVEMENT, NOT AN EXERCISE 😉
– Execute 10 flutter kicks + 10 LBCs
– Rinse and repeat until you get to turn 1 (called an audible halfway up because these suck
– @ turn 1 = bear hug carry your rock 7 paces, but this time instead of flutter kicks + LBCs, do 10 squats and 10 merkins
– Rinse and repeat until you get to turn 2
– @ turn 2 = carry your rock to the top of Cardiac Hill, and somewhere in between – knock out 50 SSH and 50 curls

Shoulder carry rocks back down to the rock pile

COT:
-The problem is we tend to act on what we believe even when what we believe isn’t anything we should. (Read Romans 7:14-21 to hear Paul talk about this) As a result, buying into the one thing becomes difficult because we’ve unfortunately bought into too many others — and more often than not those “things” muddle our thinking, misguide our actions, and sidetrack our success.” — from “The One Thing” by Gary Kelly
