Introduction

It was a brisk morning in the single digits but 5 other men braved the cold to join a long EC.  We ventured out into a couple other paths in the neighborhood & a little street running.  The pace got pushed & everyone got stronger.  Upon arrival back the PAX were gathering & getting their voices warmed up for the pending Christmas Caroling at The Ridge.

  • This time of year has everyone starting to think about what they want to accomplish next year. A bi-product of the Q-Source is a planning process called the 8-Box.  It is basically the front & back of a piece of paper with 4 boxes on each side that is set up for you to set goals as it relates to the 3 F’s.  It is built with the “concentrica” in mind (your bullseye with the most important person in the middle).  That whole process starts with your one word for the year.  A word that should define everything you do in that year & make you question every decision you make before you make it.  For example mine is consistent.  I find myself on a roller coaster of highs in lows throughout the year accelerated probably harder than I should on some aspects of my life but faltering on others.  My focus is being consistent in all aspects of my life.  In January we will kick off Q-Source again & I hope you will all consider make it a part of your goals for 2023.  As we set the table we start with the term the G3L.  The G stands for Get Right & the 3 L is anchored in Live Right, Lead Right, & Leave Right.  We say a man cannot execute the 3 L’s until he has gotten right first.  IN my effort to be consistent I will recenter myself in Q1 around “Get Right” myself.  I hope you will join me in this Q-Source journey & commit to being a better man in 2023 & invigorating male community leadership.  Aye!
