  • The leadership principle of Humility

    HUMILITY
    hu·mil·i·ty
    /(h)yo͞oˈmilədē/

    Definition –  Not thinking less of yourself but thinking of yourself less

     

    When I saw the slot still open for the Q at the foundry on Tuesday, I had to sign up.  Especially since I told Walleye that I would bring the flag.  It might surprise you that this was my VQ at the Foundry so I had to make it good.  I was looking for inspiration while causing some perspiration and Mathlete suggested that I check out www.pushjerk.com.  A quick perusal of the website brought the pain this midday morning.

     

    WARMUP

    30 SSH x IC, 20 Hillbilly x IC, 15 Windmills and 10 arm circles (front and back).

     

    THE THANG

    A) 3 rounds / 3 minutes each round / 45 second rest

    7 SSH, 7 Mountain Climbers and 7 Jump Squats – AMRAP in the 3 minutes

    The goal was to at least get 6 rounds in the 3-minute time limit.  Mahatma Ice and Cowbell left the Q and the PAX in the dust!  Well done!

    Cool down with a quick 400 mosey to catch our breath.

    B) Next up was the Genuflect / Lt. Dan.  Instead of a 1 squat to 2 lunge ratio, we got down on our knees and got back up and coupled it with the lunge sequence.  Genuflect up to 7 and bear crawl back.

    C) Jack Webb

     

    MARY

    30 x IC Flutter Kick, 20 x IC LBC and 15 x IC Dying Cockroach.

    3 minutes of ‘Get on Up’ and 2 minutes of the Dying Worm (my core is still sore).

     

    CIRCLE OF TRUST

    For my inspiration, I told the story of Booker T. Washington and his character of humility.  Being leaders we are called to leave any pretense at the door and look to serve others.  Check out the story below.

    Countoff, Namerama and Prayers for Fracsac’s aunt dealing with cancer, Tool’s son Brady and all the special needs families and my employee who was diagnosed with moderate to severe Emphysema and can no longer work.  Thank you for the honor of leading!
