COT:
You ever meet someone and think, “Man, I wish I had even half of what they’ve got… but maybe without their weird haircut”?

Aristotle had a plan for that. He said: Look at people you admire and copy their best traits. You don’t have to be a clone of anyone just collect the best from each and make it yours.

Think about it: one guy’s discipline, another guy’s patience, another guy’s joy no matter what life throws at him. You “borrow” those traits and make them habits. Over time, those habits become your character.

So here’s your challenge:

1. Pick one trait from one person you admire.
2. Practice it on purpose this week.
3. Notice how it changes you and how others respond.

Aristotle believed that virtue becomes habit, and habit becomes who you are. Borrow the best… and become the best version of yourself.

COT: Shared about my brother’s recent slalom water-skiing accident that led to major surgery and a long recovery ahead. Seeing him go through that is a reminder to keep my own aches and pains in perspective. If you’re not fully sidelined and can still be out here moving, be grateful — the aches and pains are just part of the privilege of staying active.

COT:
Living Waters
John 7:37-39

On the last and greatest day of the festival, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, “Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.” By this he meant the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were later to receive. Up to that time the Spirit had not been given, since Jesus had not yet been glorified.
