​PAX split into teams of 2. KOA chose to replicate a DORA, however instead of running laps or 100m dashes, we performed 20 yard murder bunnies out and back while the other partner completed exercises. The following exercises were completed. By the PAX.

PAX moseyed back to the shovel flags.

COT

​KOA shared a message today highlighting the importance of contentment and complacency. There is a clear difference between the two words. One means sitting still, not accelerating, and ultimately being stagnant while contentment being happy with what you have. Complacency is a state of mind with regards to attitude and action, while contentment is a state of being with regards to things. Try to find ways in your life to be content with what you have, but never settle for being complacent. You should always be striving for the next goal. 

Aye.
