CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

You do hard things. YOU chose to get out of the fartsack this morning and put in hard work. You chose the difficult path today. 

Something has happened to men. It has caused a dormancy & that is why F3 was born. Invigorate male community leadership. Instead of focusing on the 1st F all the time at F3, instead of just focusing on the sweat, it’s the other things that really matter. We are all men who are equal under the eyes of God. Not just us here this morning, but ALL men. It is not for us to decide which man is better, or which man is the strongest, or which man is the fastest, or even which man is allowed here or not. In F3, we leave no man behind and we leave no man where we found him.

We need to forge these bonds & make our community stronger. So I ask you, “How do you want to leave your legacy? How do you want to live beyond yourself?” 

Great leaders influence people after they are gone. Get into a Shield Lock, get those daily disciplines in, no matter what they are. DON’T FAIL! 

It’s why we are here. It takes a heart of change. Love has EVERYTHING to do with leadership. You may not often lead workouts (and you should do it more), but by being here, you are a leader… a leader in your household, a leader in your workplace, and a leader in your community, OUR community. 

In everyman beats the heart of a lion and once he has been picked up & scraped off, his heart is going to drive him to help and lead others. The man you help today will be the man who helps you in the future. 

What will your legacy be?

MOLESKIN:
Thank you for allowing me to lead you fine men in the gloom. This was my first Q in over 5 years, so appreciate you bearing with me as I knocked some rust off. I felt it was appropriate to start my first Q back with the VERN as this was my last Q before I left charlotte back in 2017. Definitely a full-circle moment for me.  @ski-dog @jagged-pill @mayberry killed this workout and were the only ones to finish the 5 full rounds #strong.   Q felt frisky, underestimated the distance back to the shovel flag, and called for a looooong Jailbreak. Appreciate @ribbed for handling Mary as Q was dry-heaving.

Thank you for lacing them up and coming out today. Make it a great day!
