COT: Q-Source (F2 – Language)

· Effective groups have a unique language that distinguishes their purpose and activities from the common culture.

· Culture has a way of changing the meaning of words overtime. Dredd says culture “denatures” the meaning of words, which means “to take away or alter the natural qualities of”

· For F3 – that’s the Lexicon and Exicon.

· Everywhere you go in F3 Nation, the language is used fairly consistently.

· A group having its own language also may have the side effect of keeping it exclusive to others which is not the intent of F3.

Mary: Topped off our 100 burpees for the day with a variety of creative burpees.COT: Live by your values, but respect the values of your other brothers. We are living in a time of divide. Friends are losing friendship because we can’t learn to respect each other. Everyone has to be right, which makes us wrong. Let’s do our part and live respectfully even if others aren’t.
