Circle of Trust

I was reminded last weekend while teaching my 2.0’s religion class of the importance of failure.  I’m a risk manager by day, which means that I place all of my company’s insurance and analyze all of the organization’s risks to make sure that unwanted risks are mitigated and opportunities are maximized.

In all aspects of your life, be it fitness, career, etc., you have to take risks and it’s okay to fail.  Most of my largest gains in life immediately followed times of failure…sometimes great failure.  Push yourself until you’re outside of your comfort zone.  Take calculated risks and don’t be afraid to fail.  Aye.

Prayers for Dr. Ralph’s high school best friend, and his family and friends as he battles COVID.

Naked Man Moleskin

Always great mumble chatter at the Complex.  We stayed in the parking lot and stayed together, for the most part.  Thanks to Nair for having the 6 and to the other 14 PAX who came out.
