11 men attended the weighted stroll this morning. We made our way around town finding a hill at the bottom of Harris. Backwards walk up the hill, trek around WEP and one last look at the downtown XMAS lights
Paused for the possibility of any late arrivals. Then set off to check on some friends.
Rucked towards FMHS and saw a glimpse of the boys at the <#C055Y70G5QE> ! All the reps were done. Had <@U5CF2DMKK> do a drive by on his way to Q his portion of the 30/30! 2.87 miles of smiles and soul searching.
WARMUP: the central question was posed- if we are excited and enthusiastic about trying to make a vision come into reality. (to better serve a group that we identify with and hope to serve), how do we manage our enthusiasm and have realistic expectations for those involved.
THE THANG:
Along with several references to Q-source, the main ideas that emerged included: making sure to filter out unnecessary aspects of the vision(s) (to better concentrate, and focus energies on what is most important), to regularly and deliberately engage in reflective practices (to better learn from mistakes, and help chart future courses),
And above all, have faith that progress will happen in God‘s time, and not necessarily our own.
