COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
An encouragement in the New Year to take some time each week to plan.  Planning has made all the difference in being intentional with my time, attacking the week, and making sure the things that should get my first and best actually get that.  Through planning, you take time to list out your roles and goals for the week and make sure the most important things get on your calendar.  When I fail to plan, I drift into the week and often find myself just responding to whatever is coming my way instead of focusing.  It effects my kids when I plan out our nights and how we are going to use our time together (so we don’t just default to tv).  It effects my wife when I plan out our date nights and time for communication throughout the week where I am seeking to draw her out and care for her.  So, take time each week to think thru what you are called to do, what is most important, and put those things on the calendar in pen.

Perseverance is the back up plan when we are struggling to accomplish our New Years Resolutions.

Tips for Persevering

  • Clarify your goal. Base it on your purpose, needs, and abilities. Know why you want this goal and how you and others will benefit.
  • Intend to achieve your goal.Outline your goal, strategies, and timeline. Know resources that can help you attain it, including individuals and the Internet. Break the goal into small steps, working backward form your desired outcome and attainment date.
  • Maintain optimism. Expect good things. Keep a daily diary of good experiences.
  • Live in the present. Don’t dwell on the past or worry about what might happen. Let go of attachments. The more attached you are to something, the greater the fear of losing it.
  • Acknowledge your accomplishments. Judge these against personal standards of self improvements. Have the courage of your convictions. Don’t change for others or compare yourself with them.
  • Try new experiences.Experiment with new ways of improving a product or service at work or other activities. Investigate how successful individuals or teams have achieved similar goals.
  • Care for you mind, body, emotions, and spirit. Schedule quiet times to think and reassess. Practice stress relievers such as deep breathing and exercise. Get sufficient sleep, eat healthy, and take time for fun and friends.
  • Experience yourself living your goal today. Hold your desired outcome firmly in your mind. See, smell, touch, and hear aspects of your goal. Each morning upon rising, review your goal. Repeat the process at night.
  • Persist. Focus on goals daily. At regular intervals, ask yourself whether your activities are moving you forward.

Since Training Wheels has never done a Seabiscuit before, we will call this a Training Biscuit. It is: Run one lap (1/4mile) then do 25 of each exercise below. Do two laps then exercises……three laps-exercises , then back to two-exercises. We all finished together with a mosey back to the AO. The exercises were 25 of each:

  • Dips
  • Big boys/LBCs

Training wheels talked about seeing the movie about Mr. Rogers with his wife last night. He shared with us about how Fred Rogers goal was to make every child feel special. TW was really looking for a group of men to be Christian leaders in Knoxville. He was very thankful for finding F3 and really wants to motivate us to become spiritual leaders.

Not a lot of mumble chatter as there was a lot of running today. It’s hard to breathe and talk.
