CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
If you are suffering-well, that’s normal.  People are limited and life well it’s tragic.  If your suffering is unbearable, however, here’s something to think about.

Consider your circumstances.  Start small.  Have you taken full advantage of the opportunities offered to you?  Are you letting bitterness and resentment hold you back and drag you down?   Are you treating your family with respect?

Do you have habits that are destroying your health?

Are you truly shouldering your responsibilities?

Are there things can you could do better?

If so, simply stop. Stop when you apprehend, however dimly, that you should stop.  Stop acting in that particular way.  Stop saying things that make you weak or ashamed.  Say only thing that make you strong.  Do only things that you could speak of with honor.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Fixed Mindset vs Growth Mindset- Important as leaders we realize we are not defined by are abilities. Fixed mindsets tell us that our abilities, traits and intelligence is fixed, we have a certain amount and that’s it. Growth mindsets tell us those abilities, talents can be developed through effort, teaching and PERSISTENCE. Fixed mindsets can often prevent important skill development and growth. this can sabotage your health and happiness. Commit to the process of training like a champion don’t worry about winning the championship. Its not about the results, its about building the identity of the type of person who gets to enjoy those results.

Keep Swerve in your thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
PT Barnum once said “Comfort is the enemy of progress.”…It’s only when we step outside our comfort zone that we truly improve.

Encourage and challenge the Pax to step out of their comfort zones

  • stepping up to Q a beatdown
  • stepping into leadership wit the Arsenal AO launch
  • Sign up and commit to your first 5K or Marathon
  • Maybe you have already done the above, how about an obstacle course? Hardship Hill plug 🙂
  • What about 50 miles….100? crazy! ya, but why not?!

Maybe this resonates more from a job standpoint for you, have you become complacent in your work environment, let this be a call out to dig for more!

If your walking in fear you not walking in faith
