“All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.” – Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001)

All leadership is a choice.

We don’t control the circumstances, but we do control how we respond to them.

MAGNUS Dare of the Day
Pretend today is your last day off before a big deployment or move. How would you spend it?

  • Who would you call?

  • What would you do?

  • Where would your attention go?

Now: Do one of those things today.

Why it Works: When we treat time as precious, our choices become clearer — and more joyful.
