I read this post https://www.reddit.com/r/marriedredpill/comments/60q1n6/a_conversation_between_a_father_and_son/?utm_source=amp&utm_medium=comment_list and it rekindled the fire that I haven't had in the past 4 months.

I was on a good path for the first 3 months of the year. I'll spare you the deets, but I let an injury become an inch that turned into a mile and have let myself go.

I've maintained some of the mindset, but haven't been a good leader. I haven't been the rock my family needs. I should be 7 months in now, spitting wisdom in the main marriedredpill sub, but instead I'm here at square one. It is what it is. I have to own it and move forward.

I am highly considering some type of married monk mode, but at this stage just planning on the basics (read, lift, own my shit). If I were to go monk mode, I'd love to get thoughts / links on how best to go about it. I've heard mixed opinions on it, so it may not be the right course.

Also considering the 31 days challenge from the family alpha.

Open to any other "shot in the arm" ideas.
