CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
New year to try new things.

MOLESKIN

signed up for Yoga, something I have never done before. I hate stretching but need to try something different because what I am doing now is not working! That’s just one thing I am trying that is new to me but not going to hold back on any new and different opportunities. Having said that, SHOUT out to BAGGER and SPOTTER for trying new things, posting at the BURBS! I think Bagger may have been a little apprehensive on posting at the burbs. Well, I can tell you Spotter and Bagger held there own. I think they realized perception is not always reality and you never know until you try something new. They both kicked ass and glad they stepped out of their normal AO to try something new. Yep, guilty of this too. Most of the reasons I hold back or elect not to do, is not believing that I can do it. Not something I want to do anymore, hold back on expanding my horizons, so to speak. Today was a great day and looking forward to tomorrow!

Seven men greeted the new year with some hard work! (Butterfingers, Drifter, Fins, Mr. Rogers, Proton, Snorkel, & Wood Shack)
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

The new year is here and by now we are already making those New Year’s Resolutions.  To help inspire you and make those choices a little easier I want to share a couple of quotes.

“Don’t ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive and then go do that.  Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.” (As told to Gil Bailie by Howard Thurman)

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

-Theodore Roosevelt

In summary, I hope you each of you live this year with passion and enthusiasm, and find what makes you come alive.
