With February having 28 days in the month, we will be doing a 28 minute a day challenge for 28 days. ✅ 2 points available each day… 🔹Each day 28 minutes of movement (running, walking, lifting, biking whatever preferably outside) Then.. 🔹28 minutes of quietness no phone, no tv, just you and your thoughts or you and time with a family member without distraction? The winner with the most points at the end of the 28days wins a little reward and bragging rights for making themselves better! 🎯 You must post in the comments your points (1or 2) each day and what 28 minutes of movement you completed and what 28 minutes of “quietness” Let’s continue growing and getting better together! ❗️This will be pinned under the Challenge tab to leave you comments each day!

📣 New Classroom Drop: The Shift Board We built this community for more than quick hits and scrollable posts. The Shift Board is our new classroom space for long-form content — articles written by you, the leaders inside this tribe. It’s where we’ll go deeper on the topics that shape us: leadership, growth, personal development, and the hard-earned lessons that forge real change. This isn’t just another feed. It’s a place to sit down, read, reflect, and wrestle with ideas that matter. First articles drop soon. Bring your voice. Bring your questions. Bring your shift. ✍️ Want to contribute? If you’ve got a story, insight, or framework that could sharpen another man’s leadership — we want it. Drop your draft or idea in the comments below, or DM the team to get featured on The Shift Board. Let’s build something that lasts and is bigger than any one of us!

An email that I subscribe to (James Clear author of Atomic Habits) provided this timely quote the other day… “Work is endless. Exercise is endless. Parenting is endless. Same with marriage, writing, investing, creating, and more. You get to choose the parts of your life, but many of the important things in life cannot be "finished." Do not approach an endless game with a finite mindset. The objective is not to be done, but to settle into a daily lifestyle you can sustain and that allows you to make daily progress on the areas that matter. Embrace the fact that life is continual and look for ways to enjoy the daily practice." So many times I get stuck in a mindset of “oh I can’t wait to have a (fill in the blank)”or “when this is over…” instead of embracing the everyday grind. I need to remind myself that instead of chasing happiness, I must search for contentment in the life that I prayed that I would have years ago. This idea is also in a great book titled Pound the Stone! Hope you all have a great Monday!

As I left LE I wanted a way to stay connected to all the people I wouldn’t see on a daily basis anymore. So a friend suggested starting a podcast. Every Thursday since 2019 we’ve done just that. Creating a show and community all about sharing stories of people living life on their terms, challenging the status quo and living with purpose. I hope you enjoy this clip from this conversation with ultra athlete Wes Plate

"Find a group of people who challenge and inspire you, spend a lot of time with them, and it will change your life." Appreciate all you guys!
