/We had a great RRL party last night. Good food and great friends!
It is timely that this party happens right around Thanksgiving. I am thankful and grateful for so many things in my life. I have been truly blessed and I am thankful for big and little things every day...every minute of the day.
One of the things that I am constantly grateful for is the group of people that I surround myself with. The guys of the RRL are some of the finest individuals that I have ever met. Through our training we develop a kinship, trust and a bond that will not be broken. Add humor to the mix and you have the ingredients for great relationships.
I have always liked the quote above by Jim Rohn. I think that it is true, but I also suspect that Jim Rohn didnt have a group like the RRL. Starting my day with you guys is inspiring and it has developed me into a better person.
I also like this quote from Henry Rollins about lifting weights. To me the iron is the iron...but this group is also the iron. 200 pounds is always 200 pounds, but the RRL is the same. When you show up, you are expected to give your best and you are surrounded by others who are giving theirs. If you arent feeling good, you will be brought up by the intensity around you, but excuses arent tolerated by anyone. Either do it or dont. I love that about this group.
Last night we were able to share so many laughs and memories and get to know those closest to each of us. Thank you all for being a part of the RRL.
