COT:
This workout is called Groundhog Day because it is the same thing over and over and over. Our daily lives often feel like this, but in the middle of the mundane, we can be consistent.

In Q Source, simplicity is the foundation of consistency. I have a joke that I talk a lot about in December. “January 1, everthing’s gonna change!!” Of course, things rarely do. However, with small and simple incremental changes, we can build routines, and form better habits. Living out those habits will make us into consistent men.

Prayer for Lizzy’s day at work, Wedding Singer’s foot, and Backdraft’s business.

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.
