Introduction

The dog decided to wake up at 3a and 5a to go out so I was a little nervous that I would be tired.   Left the house about 10 min later than planned.  Perfect weather, short 3 mile bike ride, arrived with 5 min to spare, feeling great and ready to go.   It was great to see everyone and I was excited to get started.   So far a great start to the day.

Circle of Trust

I had a few ideas for a COT but kept coming back to how Goldbergs COT earlier in the week really made and impression on me and felt it was worth repeating fir those that had already heard it and share with those that hadn’t.   I’m sure it wasn’t as eloquent as Goldberg but I hope the message was similar.   Check in with your loved ones and those that you care about.  More than just a ‘how are you’ or ‘how is it going’ because usually the response is ‘good’ or some variation.   Ask a pointed or specific question.   Try to get deeper.  After I heard from Goldberg I did this with son, wife, co-workers, client, prospect. Each in a different way and everyone will have their own style as well as their own experience.  It was pretty powerful.  Most people are going through their own unique difficulties and stresses and to be sensitive to this and genuinely empathetic helps.   (Check out Goldbergs bb for gus version because it’s better)

It really was great.  What a great group of people to be with and with whom to start my day.

No group family excersice after so just me, my wife and 7 year old back to the hill.  First words where ‘I want to run’. How could I say no.
