There are lots of things PAX think about when deciding to post:
There is no doubt that there are some legitimate reasons not to post. This soap box backblast is not a guilt trip but rather a challenge: PUT YOURSELF OUT THERE, BE UNCOMFORTABLE, AND COMMIT THE NIGHT BEFORE
A couple questions to ponder:
Again, this is not a guilt trip but hopefully a reminder of what we have the opportunity to do every morning. We have the opportunity to:
DO NOT TAKE THESE THINGS FOR GRANTED! THESE ARE GIFTS GIVEN TO EACH OF US . . . ARE YOU GOING TO KEEP THEM TO YOURSELF OR START GIVING THEM AWAY TO OTHERS?!?!? You know the answer. Now let’s go do it! #COMMIT
Soap Box finished . . . Now onto the workout:
Speaking of COMMIT, 8 idiots PAX were rewarded for their commitment by getting some decent weather (40 and just misting) at Watchtower.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
18 men showed up at The Floater to say good bye riddance to 2020 with a 45 60 minute tour of Downtown Waxhaw’s 3 picturesque notorious hills. The pleasant surprise of an extra 15 minutes was received warmly, especially by the NO-show Co-Site Q (I might trademark “NO-show” as it is very fitting for those who kNOw him).
WARMUP/THANG:
THE POWER OF ONE WORD:
Take a look at those ONE WORDS and explanations. Those were spoken about by MEN this morning. MEN that need each other. MEN that want to be better leaders . . . In their homes, their workplaces, and their communities. I’m VERY thankful to have these MEN in my circle. You make me better and more importantly, you make me WANT to be better and WORK HARD to be better. Not just TALK about being better. Please hold me accountable in 2021. Help me REFINE every aspect of my life.
ANNOUNCEMENT:

PRAYER REQUEST: Tanyatine shared in COT that his brother Kevin has been battling colon cancer for a number of years. He just recently found another growth is going back in for a PET scan. Please pray for healing, peace, comfort, strength, and that he would see God moving and working through this entire ordeal.

CHOO CHOOOOOOOOO!
6 of 8 F3 Waxhaw Board members met early Saturday morning to discuss how we can continue to move forward and invigorate Male Community Leadership in our area.
Reminder of WHY we do a lot this “stuff”: The money We are doing it for other men (the “sad clowns”). If you don’t have excitement to get guys involved and for helping your community, then time to step back and recharge the batteries. If you DO have a passion for helping others and want to do more within F3 Waxhaw, you are “Freed to Lead” a new project, but also encouraged to reach out to one of the Board members to see where you can get plugged in. Stop waiting for somebody to ask you.
1st F Update (Functional Qs Dasher and Chastain):
2nd F Update (Functional Qs Zinfandel and Gerber):
3rd F Update (Functional Qs Shop Dawg and Centerfold):
MISC ITEMS:
F3 is special. This Waxhaw Region is special. Let’s not take it for granted. You might not think about it, but it actually takes a lot of effort to get what we have. And it will take more effort to keep it going and keep it GROWING! Are you willing to give a little more effort . . . To help a guy who needs it? Some guys in leadership need a break so we need you to take a turn.
THE 6TH MAN:
13 Clyents showed up to Dinner to enjoy some football and tennis on a “Kids eat free” night. Lots of bitching banter from Wrigley about the injuries from his co-Site Q’s chefs. He has had to prepare the dinners all alone lately.
