No judgment tonight. Some of you are watching. Some of you aren’t. Both count. Quick poll: How are you handling the Super Bowl? 1. Watching for the game 2. Watching for commercials or halftime 3. Just there for the food and people 4. Not watching—sticking to my routine 5. Don’t care at all Bonus question (optional): Who do you think wins tonight—or who do you want to win?

Before we get into it — pause for a second. Not “everyone.” You. The person reading this right now. You could be anywhere. Scrolling something easier. Doing something that asks nothing of you. But you’re here. In a group about showing up. About discipline.About building something that lasts. Even you lurkers — I see you reading. Glad you’re here. When you’re ready, we’re ready. That matters. Because this isn’t really about what you do. It's about who you become by doing it. Every rep. Every breath. Every time you show up when you don’t feel like it — You’re becoming someone who follows through. So before you scroll past this, do one thing: 👉 Acknowledge yourself for being here. Then choose one (or both): Option 1 — Your Scorecard How did you show up this week? Wins count — even imperfect ones. Option 2 — Shout Someone Out Who do you see taking action? Tag them. Tell them why. You’ve got all weekend. No rush. Just show up.

Yesterday we talked about the negotiations we have with ourselves. Today let's zoom in on training. When does your negotiation usually start? - When the alarm goes off? - After work when you're drained? - When it's cold or dark? - When your schedule gets messy? For me, training isn't a negotiation anymore. It's Point 3 and 4 on my Foundation Protocol — the decision is already made. But it wasn't always that way. First, I had to identify when I was most likely to quit. Then I built around that moment — before it showed up. 👇 Your turn (one line is enough): "My training negotiation usually starts when ______." Optional: What helps you shut it down?

We’re in it now. The rules are already posted. The habit is chosen. The only question left is: are you still showing up? We’ve got 29 days left to finish what we started.

Most of the time we talk about habits, training, discipline. The what and the how. But we don't talk enough about the who. Who are you grinding for? Not in a cheesy "motivation" way. In a real way. The person who's counting on you to stay healthy. The kid who's watching how you show up. The partner who needs you present, not just productive. Yesterday was my wife Colleen's 50th birthday. Instead of just saying happy birthday, I wrote her 50 reasons she's my why. 👉 50 Reasons You're My Why: https://open.substack.com/pub/tkdjreed/p/50-reasons-youre-my-why?r=1xf896&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web For me it's Colleen, Spencer, and Sammi. Everything I build is for them — even when they don't see the work. 👇 Your turn: Who do you grind for? Drop a name, a photo, or just finish this: "I grind for ______ because ______."
