ANNOUNCEMENTS: upcoming CSAUP, and 2nd F on 29th. We also learned that because it’s February 29th, the leap day, it’s not a real day.

COT: The Q talked about one of the tenants of F3, which is “leave no Man behind and leave no man where you found him”. the burden run ties into this notion that we all have our own burdens, and often times someone else’s burden becomes ours. The Q also shared a story about a recent conversation he had with his son that centered on the idea of what is right and what is wrong and the varying degrees of right that an individual has to deal with and experience on a daily basis.

COT:
Q has been reading a book about the temperaments – four personality groupings first developed by the Greeks but that have lasting influence and application today. While limiting yourself (or someone else) to only what that group says they “are” is, frankly, unjust, using the temperaments as a tool for understanding why we think and do things a certain way can be helpful for setting ourselves/others up for success and maintaining harmony & respect in our relationships. It is also a helpful way of identifying social aspects that you may need to work harder on than others, as well as creating strategies that can play to your strengths.
