I recently watched the below video about taking action for those relying on you. In it, Chadd Wright describes his role as a breacher in the Seal Team. He would plan the breaching of an obstacle so his team could accomplish their mission. He describes three words that took planning into action: execute, execute, execute.

That’s what people fail to do. If you don’t execute on your plan, especially when you’re tired or scared or stressed, you’re not just cheating yourself, you’re cheating those they rely on you – your family, co-workers, or team.

So ask yourself, what is one decision I’ve been avoiding making that I should instead boldly execute today? When I say, “I’ll wait until conditions are perfect,” am I actually just waiting to avoid discomfort? How clear is my “why” for the work I’m doing — and does it anchor me when things get hard?

Execute today, gentlemen!

Cards & Corners: The Golden Buffet

This morning we split into two teams and raced from opposite corners, meeting in the middle after each card to pass a stone down the line – a reminder that even in competition, we’re still connected. The stone didn’t care who was winning; it demanded we work together, person to person, before heading back to battle.
Then we switched it up. Each PAX got to choose their own combination – exercise and travel method – building their own personal challenge. Some chose wisely, some chose pain, but everyone chose to show up and push through it.
That’s the thing about F3. We compete, we choose our hard, we suffer together, and somehow we leave better than we came. The parking lot at Golden Corral isn’t special, the exercises aren’t revolutionary – but the men who post in the gloom? That’s what makes this different.
Iron sharpens iron. Well done today, men

YHC took an empty diaper box, put a bunch of exercises on it and had the PAX roll it around like a die (not dice) and completed the exercises. Somehow a bunch of exercises not on the die were called?
