Circle of Trust

Talked a little bit about the Quadrants.  CoT was loosely based on things Dilly Dilly has talked about with the 4 Quadrants of Leadership, Inspired by Toby’s maintenance of his sobriety, and Sparklers understanding of Self Control. 

 

Both of the “Get Right and Live Right” Quadrants should continually be addressed and maintained in order to “Lead Right,” create Legacy, and eventually “Leave Right.” 

I don’t mind alcohol or have anything against anyone that likes to drink.  That is definitely me or was me.  I noticed how it was affecting my ability to lead my family.  Something bad happened to me that I want to share.

Celebration can be awful if you let it.  I do not like to Run on a full stomach.  I ran the Will County Brew Run on August, 26th of this year and did well.  I won my age group, finished 2nd overall, and created a reason to celebrate.  I drank a lot of craft beers on an empty stomach.  The beer fest was over but I wasn’t done.  I kept the party going with some friends and Bourbon.  One of them drove my car back to my house for me, I stumbled in, and I was greeted by my son who waited up to talk to me about my run.  He was proud of me and all he got was me slurring.  After some time, I decided I never want him to see that again.  I decided I wasn’t proud of the man I can become if I am drunk.  My wife gave me an ultimatum and I stopped drinking for her, I stopped drinking for my son…

 

I have had two moments of relapses since.  Both were with my wife and both happened at restaurants.  I was given permission so…. (I thought it was fine…)  Both times I had 1 drink.  My M didn’t have a problem with it… I started to in hindsight.  My last thought on this subject is probably the most important.  Getting Right and Living Right will work initially if you are doing it for someone else but cannot be maintained.  The only way to do it successfully is when you do it for yourself.  It is not selfish to take care of yourself.  You have to be in your own center.  Certainly we have others join us there.  If you are not taking care of yourself, you cannot take care of others.  Keep revisiting your own versions of Getting and Living Right so that you can help others and begin to Lead Right.  Take Care of yourselves so you can take care of others!

Aye.       

Naked Man Moleskin

Webster called 6 OClock before we did a Thruster.  He said, “Saved by the Bell” even though there wasn’t a bell.  We counted off.  I was 7 and I didn’t say what needed to be said to honor Webster.
