Where firefighters come to talk training

The Sunday Preach

"Recovery"

"Show me a firefighter who has performed flawlessly and to the letter of the SOP at every fire and I will show you a bold faced liar...The mettle of the character of the firefighter is forged in how he or she adapts, recovers and learns from a mistake. Don't languish over what is done. Accept the situation, address it, and move on, obviously in the shortest amount of time available." (Pg. 287 "Reducing Residential Injury and LODD")

Change begins with the individual. Accept that you must start this change with you, then infect your team and department with the attitude for success. Who knew a quote from an Irish MMA fighter would set the tone for the week... at the end of the day, it starts and ends with the individual commitment to growth.
