Dive into the Deep End

Dove right into a vulnerable place in coach groups today: tuna fish monologue. Haven't pulled that baby out in three years, and it scared the crapola out of me, but I think it set a good tone. Let yourself be exposed, vulnerable. Show those around you who you are without wasting your first encounters discussing surface issues. Share your passions, and don't be afraid to dive right in, as scary is it might be.

Happy Post Middle of February Day

Looking at a GMM of 80-90 people is pretty mindblowing. It's like the product of everything we've been building up to in the past year is finally tangible. visible. real. We've planned and planned and now it's time to act. This requires that every single member in the LC step up and take it upon themselves to enable themselves and others around them to be both leaders and mentors.

It's pretty empowering, after weeks of:
goal setting
planning
Marketing
info sessions
IT kinks
applications
floods of emails,
4 nights of interviews
and a few hours of slap-happy hysteria

to finally see the culmination as 40 unsuspecting newbies walk into their first GMMs.

This weekend: ROKS Spring 2007.

230 Rowdies will gather.
60 will be wearing RED.

Two Years Ago This weekend...

I attended my first ROKS conference
Let's flash back, shall we?

Holy Buttload

It's 1 in the AM. I haven't even started the spanish that's due at 8:50 AM. But all I can think is: HOLY BUTTLOAD.

Just finished off our recruitment drive.
Three info sessions this past Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.
137 potential members attended in total.
97 are now somewhere in the process of completeing their applications/registering for interviews.


Wow.
This is the beginning of something big.
