chuckle I have had a few rough months some setbacks at work that hurt me financially which is stressed out my family I’m late on some payments I’m falling further behind at work I don’t want to tap out but I just don’t know where to start well you know what that’s that’s just kind of the way that life works sometimes it’s it’s Murphy’s Law when things go wrong they always seem to happen at once and they just compound on top of each other and it’s it’s pretty easy sometimes to to feel beaten when you’re faced with all those issues and all those problems and they all hit you at the same time but let me tell you that that doesn’t mean give up in fact it means the opposite it means it’s time for you to fight harder to dig in means it’s time for you to go on the warpath and that starts with one of the fundamental laws of combat leadership prioritize and execute what’s the biggest problem what’s causing the most stress family okay sit them down explain where you are at be blunt be upfront and then give them the simple plan of how you’re going to get things back on track don’t sugarcoat it you give it to them straight next got some some late payments call those creditors up explain to them what’s going on set up some kind of a minimum payment plan so you can start making some progress and get them off your back and then you got your job right you’re falling behind at work okay talk to your boss face it tell him that you’re going to step up your game tell him you’re going to be at work early you’re gonna be at work late you’re going to be at work during lunch you’re going to be wherever you need to be whenever he needs you to be there tell him you’re gonna get after it and tell that you’re a hundred percent committed to supporting him and the company and the mission and then you get started and I’m going to tell you right now it won’t be easy it will be hard because life is hard that’s what life is and these challenges these challenges that you face they’re gonna do their best to take you down do not let them stand up dig in line up those problems and confront them face them fight them do not let them bring you down in fact in fact let those challenges raise you up let them elevate you let their demands and their trials make you stronger let the adversity you face today turn you into a better person tomorrow so so in the future you look back at these struggles and you say to them thank you you made me better
