COT: YHC sold his company and accepted a new job the same day. And had a birthday this week. Grateful for the F3 guys who have helped along the journey, with words of encouragement, wisdom or just showing up. We should all reach out to help others but, OTOH, don’t be afraid to ask for help. It’s a game-changer and everyone needs help, most want to help but none are clairvoyant and know what you need. If you don’t know who to turn to, hit me up.

COT: Our culture has swung to speaking your truth, advocating for yourself. And that’s good. But it also becomes an excuse for popping off, behaving badly, and a slippery slope even to violence. What I’m saying is, brutal honesty at all times and a total lack of self control is not good, totally egotistic and not a hallmark of the High Impact Man. So: be the grownup in the room, and you’re generally going to be able hold your head high as a leader. 15 Goblet Squats
