CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I struggled and battled with clearing my mind and coming up with the words to say ahead of time.  I went and spent some time at the football field and the AO the night before, to soak in the atmosphere and listen to God. I prayed over the field where we would work out and I prayed at the AO. Ultimately I asked God to provide me with the words that needed to be spoken and I believe He did so.

I sum it up like this:

Drifter,

  • Put the pax before yourself
  • Lead from the front, laying out the next 43 feet ahead of the pax
    • In reference to building a leadership road 43 feet ahead of the people driving on it. The metaphor extends to mentoring and being willing to share your life lessons with guys who are just behind you on their life journey.
  • Pax, you are all freed to lead. F3 promotes male leadership. This is not Drifter’s AO. It is yours, and he speaks for it.
  • Drifter, motivate and empower your pax. Lead from the front and always be ready to jump into the trenches with them.

5 secrets you must discover before you die- John Izzo- interviews with 235 people nominated as wise elders.

2nd secret- leave no regrets.
“ to leave no regrets we must live with courage, moving toward what we want rather than away from what we fear. To leave no regrets we must overcome the inevitable disappointments that life hands us”

Being leaders in our family, work and community requires us to face challenges and risk . Must see the positive that can happen not the negative.

We will inevitably make mistakes. “ perhaps what often determines our happiness in life is the step we take after a setback.”

Provides 4 questions to ask every day.
“ did I act out of fear today or this week? How do I want to be more courageous tomorrow or next week?”

One FNG joined the HIMs today, welcome to Spurt (Jesse Cartegena)!
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Times are strange and life can be bewildering.  Some may relate when I say I’ve felt weighed down and tired lately.  Jesus said “Come to me all who are weary and heavy laden, and I will give you rest…” and “My yoke is easy and my burden is light.”  Consider that he was a carpenter, and one task he probably engaged was to make yokes for livestock.  Unbalanced weight makes the work hard and painful (like running with a CMU on your shoulders or in your arms).  When the weight is distributed on a well-fitted yoke (like a ruck or weight vest), the burden feels lighter and the work seems easier in comparison to the unbalanced load.  We men are made to carry burdens, to carry our brothers and family with us through good times and bad times, to lead with integrity.  Jesus will make the load bearable for each of us, when we submit to him and let him fit the yoke properly.
