My “One Word” for 2023 is going to be “Focus”. YHC noticed that at the end of 2022, I was scattered and distracted and not putting my full attention on important tasks. 2023 looks like it’s going to be a tougher year with the economy and it will require more focus and with that I am going to give up social media as we start the year so I can focus on what’s important – my M, my 2.0’s, my friends, service to others, my health & wellness and my mammon.
“The successful warrior is the average man with laser like focus.” Bruce Lee
“Waste no more time arguing what a good man should be. Be one.” – Marcus Aurelius

Welcome FNG Bootlegger and down range Pax ButterMaker (Lexington, SC) and Zalinsky (Rock Hill, SC)!
Prayers for those suffering head trauma ( Bootlegger and ButterMaker mentioned), prayers for the men to focus on what’s most important as we head into 2023 and for the knowledge of God’s will and the power to carry it out!
