CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Self Responsibility and Accountibility is what I’ve been working on to continue the growth that F3 and my fellow HIM have inspired in myself.  Focusing on not “Finger Pointing” and placing blame on others and instead accepting responsibility for what happens around me and how I react to those situations. Challenging myself to assume responsibility is difficult but continued discipline allows for a healthy habit to develop.

14 Pax showed up this morning with one FNG, Six Pack!
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Many people make goals and think that they are on the right track to reach those goals when, in reality, they are doing all of the wrong things. At one point when I was trying to get fit, I thought I was eating really well. There was a day or two when I was really busy or had some other excuse and I stopped for food, but I wrote those off as unimportant because overall I was doing good. When I looked at my bank account, I realized that I had a lot more fast food than I thought. Because my focus was on the few good things I was doing and I made excuses for the many bad things, my mind believed that I was on track. I encourage you to not only make goals, but to examine your progress on those goals in a realistic way. Spend 5 or 10 minutes focusing only on your progress towards those goals and do it often.

Let’s keep leading ! The only way to get better is to practice. Sign up to Q not only at the Bombshelter but sign up to Q at another  AO and lead a group of men you don’t know . It will only help you be a better leader.
MOLESKIN:
I think I am a social introvert. I like being social but I will never be that guy that will out talk you! I like being alone but only for short periods. Signing up to Q and leading workouts is good for me. It’s not my comfort zone to be in front of a bunch of people talking but leading workouts has helped me overcome those fears. I encourage everyone to get out there to lead! It’s what we are meant to do as men and men of action lead

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I had nothing. Drifter stepped up and provided us with a nice Easter message from his recent study of Matthew. He spoke about certain flower up north that blooms early but is subsequently covered in snow. An allegory of Christ dying but leaving us with the hope of a new “spring” yet to come.
MOLESKIN:
I had a way worse routine planned. I’m thankful the blocks were returned so we could do my original idea. That bad one will probably be saved for the Burbs. I don’t want anyone to quit the Bomb Shelter…
