Moleskin:
Wanted to identify the jester and the people who tend to be critics. We are own own worst critics and we let others critique what we can or cannot do. We have to put that aside and keep trying. The character is built in the trying.
So I recited Teddy Roosevelt's ” Man in the Arena” speech:
“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.”
Today's beatdown was tough! But it doesn't matter if you finished the reps. What matters is that you got out of your comfortable bed to get better. That is how you all are better than the sad clowns who are not even trying!
F3 Spring Hill has grown so much and while I am glad to be one of the few from the start two years ago, I am more proud that we have more PAX within the fold. We only get better and bigger by giving it away and sharing that F3SH is special and has a spot for everyone. Lets keep Accelerating for ourselves, our M, our family, for Spring Hill!
Shout out to those who were there today since F3SH's inception: @Tiny Dancer @Joey Freshwater @Ron Swanson @Dizzy Gillespie @FICO and YHC @Lone Star
I cannot express how much this entire group of HIM means to me and has impacted my life. It is and will continue to be an honor to lead you HIM into the gloom.
