COT: I explained to the PAX my reservations and concerns that scared me away from CSAUPs in the past. I almost didn’t attend the last CSAUP because I had all but talked myself out of it. About a week prior I decided, even if I had to walk the whole thing, I was going to knock out a CSAUP. It was tough, but I made it. I told the PAX I was disappointed in myself for not attending past CSAUPs when my nerves got the best of me. I have missed too many events and opportunities in the past because I would have been out of my comfort zone. I reminded everyone to not let you hold yourself back. You can complete any task you attempt, but fail any task you don’t try.
Khakis took us out in prayer.
