Reflection: “Speak only when you are certain what you’ll say is not better left unsaid”

    It’s paraphrased, but the original version is attributed to Cato.  For some reason when I ran across it some weeks back, it hit a cord.  After implementing the idea, I have come to realize I say a lot of useless things that don’t benefit anyone (other than my own ego).  If your input doesn’t help or lift up someone around you, why do you need to give it?

    In the upcoming days, many of us will be spending time with extended family.  I offer this quote and suggest you take a few seconds to think not just about what you’re going to say, but ask yourself why you are saying it.  Might give you a little more peace and happiness this Christmas season.

 

Mole Skin:

  • Great weather in the hood for this morning struggle

  • Missed Clark complaining about deadlifts, even though Dandelion tried to make up the difference

  • Metro flies in on a quiet bike!!  It’s a Christmas miracle.  

  • 6 PAX, 7 work stations in rotation.  If you fartsacked, you could have been a difference maker.

  • One hill sprint Q tried to drop the hammer, but Skipper has none of it.  If the PAX runs, it’s his PAX.  Needed Goodwrench to offer a challenge

  • Vortex crushes every set like a machine (could have been Abrams wearing a Vortex costume??)

  • Gecko quietly gets it done

  • Mulligan, that baby is old enough now for you to return to posting (copied from last BB, but still true)

  • Thanks for another Thursday opportunity to post.  Really enjoyed it.
