Circle of Trust

I was reading DRP Q 1.1 yesterday about sad clowns and how that shows up in various aspects of our life.

Over a year ago I didn’t appear like a first F sad clown but I absolutely was. Thanks to Serena for the push, this past year in f3 – i’m in the best shape i’ve been since college. Lots of things to be proud of that I’ve accomplished when it comes to fitness and challenges. I’ve absolutely accelerated and searching for what’s next.

I don’t know if I can say that I’ve accelerated in the same way when it comes to 2nd and 3rd F. There’s been a number of times where I haven’t been the HIM I should be as a father, husband, friend.

I laid in bed last night thinking about what I had read earlier in the day and remembered the headline I saw about Jeff Dickerson with ESPN passing away after his battle with cancer. I read the nice comments about him and saw many people comment that they would help as best as they can with his son. I didn’t realize that he had left his 11 year old son and that his wife had passed two years earlier. He’s in his 40’s. I can’t imagine the pain that child is feeling and thinking about my 7 year old and 8 year old and how they aren’t that far from it. I know there’s been a lot of pain these past years and that Jeff Dickerson’s isn’t the only one. Hearing the things written about him made it sound like he was a HIM with the 2nd and 3rd F.

So I know we are all getting after it and pushing eachother on the 1st F each morning early in the gloom but there’s the entire rest of the day that we need to be making sure that we are the Men that we should be and we can focus on being disruptive and making the commitment to accelerate all 3 Fs each day.
