YHC is currently reading a book entitled “4 Disciplines of Execution” based on the recommendation by Santini. The book discusses the “whirlwind” of life which is basically every day for YHC. For me, the whirlwind is the constant to-do items that I can never catch up with whether it is in my role as father, husband, district manager, leader, soccer coach, school volunteer, friend, etc. Because of this constant whirlwind, I focus much less on long term goals and more time on just being a fireman who puts out fires.

With this in mind, I set the Weinke to reveal a whirlwind of a workout for the Pax. I was excited to have 3 Phase join us. He was working out last week, saw the group, showed some interest and posted on his own this week. Proud to have another Marine in the group. Welcome!

Moleskin:

For YHC, I never feel like i can catch up. While I like to be busy, I sometimes wonder if i am making long term impact or simply putting bandages on everything knowing full well that I will have to deal with it in the future. I am stuck in the whirlwind.

But after this workout, Gobler and I now will be holding each other accountable and that gives me great strength. I know I became a little bit better as a result of this and that is what F3 means to me!
