Find some time this weekend to give a little to someone else. We make time for things that matter to us, so give some of that time to someone you love. Maybe spend a few minutes listening to your wife about her week. Maybe find time to play that game your kids have been asking to play with you. Maybe help your neighbor in their yard. Whatever it is, just do it – not for the recognition, but because you care. I promise it will make your day a little brighter.

Aye!

As men, we take our LUMPS. Work piles up. The honey-do list grows. Sometimes it can be daunting. But, we train for this. We don’t BOAST about how we’re handling the CRAP life throws at us. Instead, we face the challenges head-on with our heads high. We keep going, showing resilience and grit, even when things aren’t going our way. You may not think people notice what you do, but we do. We see the work you are doing to get better and your effort will make you stronger – ready for the next thing life hurls at you. Keep going, brother. You’re built for this.
Aye!

Still recovering from the 1776 workout so we strapped some weight on… or carried a sandbag and walked 2 miles.
