Introduction

I will not lie, this morning was difficult for me to get up.  I felt Sad, I felt tired, & I did not want to get out of the fart sack but I knew I could not let down the men.  My heart was immediately filled with joy as I pulled in The Wood parking lot & a gaggle of of men had embraced my challenge to do something hard today & were starting off on their 1.04 mile run.  I quickly parked & got after 104 burpees with Bluegill & Picasso.  As we finished the men coming back from the run encouraged us & we got to work.

  • This week we kickoff year 3 of Q-Source. The Q-Source is built on 4 quadrants the G3L.  That last quadrant is “Leave Right” which is all about what kind of Legacy you will leave.  I cannot think of a better human that embodies this 4th Quadrant than our man 1040 which is why it is only appropriate that we kick start this year thinking about Legacy by anointing 1.04 every year as 1040 Day.  Why would we do this?  We do this to remind ourselves the importance of living 3rd & impacting those around us like 1040 has done for all of us.  It is a reminder to do Hard Shit as you kickoff the year just like this HIM has done leading from the front on rucks as a double respect guy or winning the 2021 Reindeer Games through sheer will & effort.  I think we can all agree that as we look 43 feet ahead in our lives & begin to think about our legacy we can only hope that we leave the same legacy on those behind us like 1040 has started to pave.  So I will simply say thank you brother, thank you for showing all of us what Legacy looks like & my challenge to all of you men is to start to think about your legacy & the best way to do that is go do something really hard today & every year on 1.04.  Aye!
