The Finite Resource
Time: Our Most Valuable Asset as We Age As we grow older, time reveals itself as our most precious asset. It becomes clearer that unlike money or career advancements, the moments we cherish most aren’t counted in promotions or paychecks but in the quality of our relationships and the adventures we dare to embark upon. • Career vs. Life’s Treasures: Ambitions in our careers drive us, pushing us towards success and recognition. Yet, as time passes, it’s the moments shared with loved ones, and the spontaneous decisions to explore and experience life, that stand out. Climbing the career ladder is rewarding, but when looking back, it’s the unplanned road trips, the late-night conversations, and the laughter shared with friends that we recall with the warmest affection. • Valuing Time with Loved Ones: The hours spent working might bring temporary satisfaction and financial stability, but the memories made with family and friends are what truly enrich our lives. These moments strengthen bonds and bring us joy that lasts a lifetime. As we age, these relationships become our most treasured possessions, reflecting the essence of what it means to live a full life. • Spontaneity Over Schedule: In youth, the appeal of structured achievements and accolades might eclipse the allure of spontaneous adventure. However, with time, the value shifts. The unexpected journeys, the sudden change of plans that lead to new discoveries, become the highlights of our existence. These experiences, often unplanned, teach us to appreciate the beauty of the moment and the unpredictability of life. As time becomes increasingly valuable, the perspective on what truly matters shifts. The career goals that once seemed paramount give way to the realization that it’s the experiences shared with others, the joy of unexpected adventures, and the quality of our relationships that truly enrich our lives. In recognizing time as our most significant asset, we learn to prioritize these moments of connection and adventure over the relentless pursuit of professional achievement. We understand that while career success is a worthy endeavor, the memories that truly define our lives are created away from the office, in the company of those we love and in the embrace of the unknown.

@Morgan Sheets those are great questions and the answer will vary from person to person. You can’t go back and redo yesterday so learn and let go. You can plan for tomorrow but not predict so don’t forget to live today. As a provider you are always going to have the money concern hovering but money is a tool and should be thought of and used accordingly. It’s a means to an end and not the end itself. The best advice and what I wish I would have incorporated earlier would be to say yes. Dad will you play catch with me….yes. Spouse wants to sit and talk or cuddle…yes. The I can’t right now I’m busy is most the time just that…busy not a life or death situation that can’t be addressed at a later time. Not sure I answered your question but hope that helps.
Forgiveness
So I've been struggling with a problem in my personal life at the moment. I have a relative who has constantly made remarks and comments subtle ones but little jabs at my wife and the way me and her parent our son. Now the trick is this relative use to watch my son once a week. The last straw was my wife sent out a baby shower invitation to them and their sister who then without knowingly replied to my wife's group chat with her in thinking she wasn't with comments mocking us and insulting my wife. Now since then this relative keeps saying we should forgive them and let it go saying things like "oh you've never made a mistake in your life." Now I think this is all just words considering I've had a talk with them before about these comments and they still continued. So my problem is my relative is saying I'm punishing them by not letting them see my child at the moment. (I never said to them that this was forever just after the comments made to my wife's face I said it was best to take some time off.) to make a long story short as Christian's I know we should forgive. But my point is I would forgive what she said if I knew she was sincere and meant it but her actions show me she actually isn't sorry she's just sorry she got caught. Not looking for a quick answer back just wanted to get your alls thoughts and opinions on it from an outside prospective to see if I'm wrong or not looking at this right. Appreciate yall 🙏🏻

The choice to forgive is really for you not them. You may never truly know if they are sorry, if they meant it, etc. However, you holding on to animosity or anger will only effect you not them.
Why workout?
Hey guys, I’m trying to work on an essay/course on the purpose of physical exercise and could use your input. What are your personal reasons for going to the gym and training? What helps you stay consistent?

I think for me it’s multiple reasons ranging from health to quality of life. One big reason for me though was I have older children that are grown and out of the house but I also still have younger ones at home. I feel they deserve the same Dad that can play, Coach and participate with them like the older ones got. Fitness allows me to maintain the functionality to do that but also the energy level as well.
Post-work and Pre-Church workout 🥵
I didn't have a lot of time for a full on lifting session so I decided to go for some conditioning intervals. 20 minute EMOM (Every minute on the minute) Minute 1: 15 goblet squats Minute 2: 8 strict pull-ups Minute 3: 16 single arm Dumbbell snatches Minute 4: 20 push-ups Repeat x 5 Minute 20: 🥵 I like the EMOM style because it allows you get a lot of volume in a short period of time without driving the intensity to high. I love to use them to practice movements. Today I really wanted to work on good squat form and good pull-up form. Lots of quality reps in a short period of time!
