Circle of Trust
I read a story from Dr. Wayne Dyer’s book “Inspiration”:
The story is summed up as to what happens when a carrot, and egg, and a coffee bean are put in boiling water? (The boiling water represents adversity in this case.)
In boiling water…do you start out strong but then wilt like the carrot?
In boiling water…do you start out protected but then harden and close up on the inside like the egg?
Or…
In boiling water…do you start out like the coffee bean, that changes the water itself?
How do you react to adversity? Which one are you?
Keep your spirit HIM’s. Keep it together. Be the coffee bean.

Self inflicted AAR for La Luz…no more holding plank in the street. Lot of activity at La Luz with cars driving around!
P.S. Shout out to Chunky Monkey who is the owner of Legacy Nutrition & Fitness…we hit up Coffeteria with some Proteineteria shakes too…good stuff!
