What fills your cup?
Good morning Warriors 👊 It’s Friday here in New Zealand. A good reminder heading into the weekend: 👉 Fill your own cup too. Not just physically. Mentally. Emotionally. For me, that looks like: • PT at the gym in town today • Watching my son play sport tomorrow • And Sunday… a lie in bed with a coffee instead of getting up at 6am ☕️ Simple things. But they matter. Because life can’t just be about pushing, surviving, and getting through. We need moments that refill us. Different things fill different cups: • Nature • Music • Good people • Quiet time • Sport • A laugh • Time alone • Doing something you enjoy What kind of things fill your cup? Have fun with this - by adding a GIF below.

Something from Hemingway really hit me: “The world breaks everyone and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. ....." Hemingway was not talking about the bones and marrow of man, but the HEART and soul of man. When I was injured it broke my HEART. Why, that I was not the same man and could not live the life I knew..... I say your heart was also broken. Now to heal our hearts or as he says, "it will kill us"......
Here's why intention is important!
Good morning Warriors 👊 Why bother setting an intention? Because your brain is already working toward something, whether you choose it or not. There’s a part of your brain called the Reticular Activating System (RAS).Its job is simple: 👉 It filters what you notice. If your focus is on problems, you’ll see more problems. If your focus is on possibility, you’ll start to notice options. That’s not luck.That’s how your brain works. Now layer this on top: Thoughts → Feelings → Actions → Results Your thoughts create how you feel.Your feelings drive what you do.And your actions create your results. And here’s the part most people miss: 👉 Your physiology affects your feelings. How you sit. How you breathe. Your posture. Your movement. If your body is tight, shallow breathing, closed off…you’ll feel anxious, frustrated, reactive. If your body is open, breathing slow, grounded…you’ll feel calmer, more capable, more expansive. Same situation.Different state = different outcome. So when you set an intention (a vision), you’re doing two things: 1️⃣ Giving your brain a target (RAS) 2️⃣ Guiding your thoughts → feelings → actions 👉 Simple practice today: Ask: What do I want to create today? Then: • Think in that direction • Breathe into that state • Act from that place Inner Warriors don’t leave their day to chance. They direct it. One thought. One breath. One action at a time 👊

I love you boys, and I see you as brothers. JUst as military guys see the ones that went to war with them as brothers. They can only understand what they went through and the same for us. I got injured 20 yrs ago, but it never goes away and don't expect it to. YOu will get to a point where life is moving on and then a set back, a UTI or a wife/girl friend leaving, etc.... Does not mean you are less, you are great guys and the world needs us. HOw many others know what we know about pain, love, hospitols, etc... Work on that vision. it works.
What is your purpose?
Good morning Warriors 👊 Let’s talk about purpose. Some believe we all have one. Some aren’t sure. I’ll be straight with you, I believe we do. And I also believe it’s simpler than we make it: 👉 Our purpose is to suck the marrow out of life. To live it. Experience it. Use what we’ve got. But here’s where men get stuck: “I don’t know what my purpose is.” “I don’t know what I would love.” So nothing moves. Try this instead: 👉 You don’t find purpose by thinking about it. 👉 You build it by doing. Ask yourself: “What would I love?” Pick something. Small. Real. Honest. Then do it. When that’s done, ask again: “What would I love next?” Do that. Then repeat. At some point, you’ll look back and realise: 👉 You’re not searching anymore. 👉 You’re living it. Today's question: What’s one thing you would love to move toward right now? Start there Warriors 👊

I remember one day when I was laying in bed, another day. Someone gave me this same advice but with some Power and him being upset with me. He knew I had more to give. I had asked him for strwberrys, He said, if you want them, you go get them.(but with more vigor). Stupid, but it was a beginning that got me out of the house and seeing the world again. That might sound a little simple but there was a lot more verbage. Harsh, demeaning, yet I deserved it.
Where you at today!
Good morning Warriors 👊 Let’s keep this one easy today. Right now, where are you at? A️⃣ Feeling good / steady B️⃣ Just getting through C️⃣ Bit flat / low energy D️⃣ Somewhere in between Just drop the letter that fits. I’m a D today. Your turn, Warriors
