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!

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!

I’ve read this book front to back numerous times and still will refer to sections when I am feeling lost. Even read it with my now adult son to strengthen our relationship. It’s all about the stages males need to go through to become our best. Let me know if you’ve read it and what you took from it.

As some of you might know, or have read on the about page, we are going to be launching The War Room! This is a designed for individuals who wants more connection, brotherhood, accountability, and want to work on a clear vision(s) towards what they want in life. This is a commitment to yourself and the other in The War Room to show up in life. We will have weekly accountability calls. These are geared towards the goals that you want to complete, action steps to complete those goals, weekly reviews, and ultimately accountability from each other. This is geared to be a continuous 8 week “Mission Cycle.” To be forthcoming with you all, in the future, we will be charging for joining The War Room community, but want to make this free for all those who have been with us from the beginning! What we ask in return is to get feedback (and testimonials 😉) to all those who join so that we can make this great and bring the most value to you guys and those who are called to this. If you’re interested please shoot us a comment so we can get everything ready before February!! And if you’re not interested no worries.

"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!
