QSource 3.12 – Courage: Setting Aside Fear To Turn Hardship Into Grace
f3nation.com/q/courage/

Here are some of the things that stuck out to me from this week’s QSource content:
– To give over completely to one’s instinct to avoid danger, regardless of the consequences, is the opposite of courage.
– Courage begins with the recognition that while peace should always be our goal, there are some threats that confront the Community that simply must be fought.
– (talking about the Jester) He is a master corrupter, who hollows out a man’s vitality from the inside, leaving him too exhausted to overcome hardship.
– The virtuous leader intentionally exposes himself to expected hardships in order to build the durability he will need to overcome the unexpected hardships that await him so that he can turn them into grace.

This was a very special day as we passed the shovel flag off to a new leader, Slappy! It is going to be extremely exciting to see what he does in the role and how Shamrock is going to thrive under his leadership.

We have all heard the quote, “Strong men create good time, good times creat weak men, weak men create bad times, bad times create strong men.” I head some commentary on this quote from Nick Freitas on this and says, “Bad times don’t create strong men, strong men are made by the influence of other strong men.” He goes on to talk about how strong men are there through good times and bad, but in the bad times, strong men are once again appreciated for what they contribute to society.
I instantly thought of F3 and the group of strong men that I have the privilege of working out beside every morning. All of you have made me a stronger man in all areas of my life and I am thankful for every one of you.
