CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Leadership involves surrounding yourself with good positive people . With out this, you cannot have success.
MOLESKIN:
As I wrapped up my first season as a HEAD COACH , I realized quickly I can’t do it alone. Expecting to lead alone is nearly impossible. A true leader will surround himself or herself with positive people ready to help. It’s just what I had in my first season of being a head coach for 2 of my sons flag football teams. I had a lot of expectations of myself to “run the show” but quickly realized , I am screwed doing it all alone. I had dads stepping up ready to help as assistant coaches. It was much needed and with all the help, our teams had a successful season ! The success was not winning the games but just having fun with the kids! To sum it up, we are born to lead but we can’t do it alone !

Einstein “ stay away from negative people, the find a problem to every solution” . As you lead, make sure you surround yourself with positive people !

Aye!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Spoke about the Tennessee/Alabama game and how Tennessee and it’s team resembles our lives a lot more than Alabama.  That sometimes our hard work doesn’t turn out the way we desired.  That obstacles and hardship don’t mean we’re being punished.  God just asks us to show up and be faithful.  To trust him no matter what is going on at any given time.  That he has a plan and sometimes it doesn’t look the way we wanted or thought might be best for us, but God sees the whole picture.

BOM
Everything we did this morning is nothing complicated or fancy.  Each man could do what we did alone with no problem…the question is would you?  The second F, Fellowship, is what empowers the first F (Fitness).  Our strength is drawn from each other.  Seeking to be the leaders we want to be in our families and community is hard work.  Each day we have to get up and recommit.  Doing it alone is a recipe for failure, but together we can make a little progress each day.

Bottom line – Make sure you are locking shields with other men seeking the same goals you are seeking.  Don’t try and go it alone!  You aren’t meant to do it alone.  Growth is a team sport.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Be patient and a good example for your kids (and any younger than you for that matter).  I know I struggle on a regular basis with keeping my cool when trying to get the kids to listen and do as they are told.  I wanted to simply remind everyone this morning how much children model our behavior.  They will very likely lash out if that is what we do every time we get a little impatient and frustrated.  Take a step back, breath, and collect your thoughts before you respond.
MOLESKIN:
I really appreciate the opportunity to lead the PAX this morning for my first F3 Knoxville Q.  Thanks for sticking with me through the workout.  I look forward to my next Q.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Prayers requested for Dogbite.
