1 Peter 3:15 be prepared to give a defense for the hope within you, but do so in gentleness and respect.
Our first tendency is to repay evil for evil, but we have to take time to prepare ourselves to not react that way. Seek wisdom in the Word, in works of wisdom, and in people who are wise, and train yourself to act and react differently.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
This sucked big time. We were going to do it OYO but decided we would be able to push each other through the high reps if we stayed together. You won’t always have someone there pushing you to take care of business. Often at work or home you have no motivation to take care of your responsibilities but it must be done. Dig down in yourself and find the motivation to move forward.
MOLESKIN:

Thanks to Woodshack, Pinnochio and Umbro for joining me on a ruck to the educator for 5 rounds up with 15 coffin sit-ups and 15 plank jacks.

Just one of those days where you don’t want to be or do. I was on Q of course but yesterday and today was just one of those days that I struggled to wake up and post at F3. But, the big BUTT! I could have stayed in my bed aka comfort zone but told myself that these are the times you need to suck it up and BE and DO!
MOLESKIN

i Figured we might have 6-8 guys….maybe that was me not feeling it and thought the rest of the guys would not be feeling it and not show up. I was DEAD WRONG! So glad I sucked it up and was there this morning! Not only did we have 6 guys Rucking but we had 14 men total for the F3 workout . So greatful for you guys and to know that you guys were there to embrace the suck with me!

Sometimes, it’s ok to not want to do or be but those are the times to really challenge yourself . AYE!
