    We ran out of time.

    COT

    Proverbs 21:5 “The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance, but everyone who is hasty comes only to poverty.”

    • The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry by John Mark Comer
    • Who am I becoming?
      • Tech and life make us feel hurried constantly
    • Ruthlessly eliminate hurry from your life.  Hurry is the great enemy of spiritual life – we need to be in the moment.
      • Silence and Solitude
        • Set boundaries with your phone – turn off notifications and lock them away when it is marriage or family time
        • spend time in solitude – be in nature
      • Sabbath
      • Simplicity
      • Slowing
        • Stop at stop signs and drive the speed limit.

    Moleskin

    • This was a grind the Man Makers and Navy Seals with coupon are no joke. The rifle carry was icing on the cake. We had a very solid crew and got our moneys worth.
    • Wicked is from West Virginia and is deeply offended by the term “Hillbilly Walkers”. He proposes we change the name to “Mountain Man Walkers”.
    • Carrier’s time in Hampton Roads is drawing to an end. It has been great having him at our workouts.
    • Wicked gave a COT on not being in a hurry and absent mindedly stated that “I need to hurry up and get you guys out of here” at the close.
    • As usual, Mango led from the front.
    • Rover was “dialed in” today too – his calm demeanor and perseverance was inspiring.
    • Coffeteria happened post Q.
