COT: Circle of Trust initiated. What’s on men’s hearts? Get the internal external. F3 is for all men. ALL of them. Not just those of our preferred flavor of a religion. F3 helps everyone. If somehow it saves a soul from the perspective of any particular PAX, great. We’re here to make leaders of all men, let’s keep on keeping on.

WARMUP: Intro and mosey to the church parking lot. Complete 15 reps of MNC, Micheal Phelps and arm circles. Then mosey to the day car parking lot for some None Discrpt Produce pickers, Hill Billy Walkers, Imperial Walkers and Wind milks. Then left to mosey down the hill to the entrance to the apartments.
THE THANG: Instead of a full Pendulum workout, we did 7’s on each hill. The first was to run up the hill and do 1 merkin and come back down for 6 bomb jacks. Rinse and repeat until complete. The I spoke about struggles lately and then started the 2nd hill. Run up to the fire department to do 1 burpee and run back down for 6 Squats. Rinse and repeat to complete the 7. Started walking back to COT and talked about JFK conspiracies.

Unbeknownst to the PAX we switched modalities about halfway through. This was to represent the foundation 1 from Q-Source: https://f3nation.com/disruption.

“Because it induces movement, leadership causes Disruption”

PAX were disrupted from their planned morning workout to make sure both Qs saw all the PAX and to push them outside the complacency zone of their established routines. With the leadership, we should expect disruption and embrace it.

Leaders influence movement towards advantage. Disruption is a solid technique to induce movement.

“If a man calls himself a leader but does not cause Disruption by initiating movement, then he is not practicing leadership. He might be doing something else, like managing or governing, but he is not leading.”

It is not the goal of the new SLT members is not to manage or govern. It should not be the goal of the Site Qs to manage or govern. Let’s lead!

F3 is not an organization with leaders, but an organization OF leaders. Each man is freed to lead. The particulars of Site Qs and the SLT structure is nice, but let us not be afraid to disrupt when we have a vision for advantage.

Kermit handed 2nd F Q off to Liberty Bibberty
Band Camp handed the Weasel Shaker off to Poppins
Esso handed the Nantan Flag off to Band Camp

It is an honor to be considered a leader in the Fort. But be mindful every member of the PAX is A LEADER. Let’s all be about the business of leading.
