COT
“It is dangerous to live without your heart being captured by awe of God, because awe of God is quickly replaced by awe of you. “”

It is a daily battle,
one that is free of
physical weapons,
political parties,
and national boundaries.
It is a battle that has ben raging
since the garden
and will not stop until the war
is finally won.
This battle is not fought
between people,
it is fought
within people.
It is a much greater danger
to each of us
than war between nations
will ever be.
It is a battle of awe.
We were created to live in
a real,
heart-gripping,
agenda-setting,
behavior-forming
awe of God.
But other awes kidnap our hearts.
Awe of creation,
awe of other people,
and awe of ourselves
shove the awe of God
out of our hearts.
So we need grace to see again,
to tremble again,
and to bow down again
at the feet of the One who deserves
our awe.”-Paul David Tripp (New Morning Mercies)

[virtuous-leadership-school] Team Development (delayed post)

AO: virtuous-leadership-school
Q: Borg
PAX: Spellcheck, Mermaid, Borg
FNGs: None
COUNT: 3
WARMUP: Prayer, coffee and a fire

THE THANG:
Discussed Team Development in real life. Below are some interesting questions brought up by the PAX that can reflect on both the leadership and members of a team.

– John Pryne lyrics – “How can you work all day, come home and have nothing to say?” Like men sitting in a bible study group week after week and never saying anything.
– If guys don’t have something to say, what are they studying? Who are they interacting with? What’s on their mind?

How do you know if you are on mission as a team? Failure is easy to see, but what does success look like? This brought up the recurring issues of
– Being Aware
– Evaluating
– Adjusting

Maybe one of the most important things in Team Development is removing the wrong people, soon enough. We discussed times we had chronic problems with team members and how the delegation (or lack of delegation) of responsibility to us helped, hindered, or blocked resolution.

Some men seem to see F3 as a club, not as a team- what’s the difference? Others seem to see it as a team and make adjustments to the Qs to fit the team needs and capabilities.

How you communicate and how it is received are both critical to staying on mission.

We discussed the 80/1 Rule that was described in this chapter. The 1% cannot be delegated.

We discussed how we had dealt with situations where we were put in charge, but not allowed to set the standards or given the authority to make corrections with chronic problem team members.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
– Forg3 Leadership registration is open – Jan 24-26. Limited to 20 PAX due to the facility. Registrations are filling up.

COT:
hard skills

Not merely a difficult task. Rather, things that should be running at full speed at all times without thinking. Things that are hard-wired into our routine, into our lives. Hard skills are repped and repeated so many times that they should run in the background flawlessly. These skills are what we must find to be top performers in our lives. A few hard skills that we can focus on are:
– good attitude at all times
– being a good family leader
– pursuit of faith

We rucked until we had to turn around.

I asked my 10 year what i could be better at and he said i needed to listen and get off my phone more. Don’t be afraid to ask for feedback and make necessary changes to be better.

A couple HCs disappeared overnight. We forgive you.
