COT: PAX chose a naughty or nice card and suffered the consequences. Things are easier if you are nice! We can make a choice every day to be naughty or nice. I fear I have chosen naughty way too many times – sarcasm, comments, judging others, etc. In 2026 I am choosing nice, or at least trying.

MARY: Mary-go-round
COT:
YHC discussed how I used to always state that I wish this was the hardest thing I had to do today (our beat down). However, after engaging with a former PAX from years ago, I realized that I hope this was not the hardest thing we had to do today. We are men, and we are built for so much more. If it is indeed the hardest thing we had to do, then we are not pushing ourselves quite hard enough and all other aspects of our life.
