1551/2/23 8:53:451/2/23 9:08:21AaronWingWhen I was 7 my parents wouldn’t let me near a swimming pool for 2 reasons:
1. I couldn’t swim
2. I’d always jump in the deep end

They tell me I almost drowned twice. Almost.

My misogi for 2023 is to keep jumping in the deep end.

So…I’m chairing a Men’s Health Group (in a fortune 50 company) to help educate colleagues on how to take control of their health, recognize early signs/symptoms, and know what to do if they, or a loved one, gets diagnosed.

Emphasis is on Health. My plan is to identify colleagues who have been through a health scare, learn from them, and educate fellow colleagues so if they’re in the same situation it won’t be as scary. We get 1 chance at life and my goal is help improve as many as I can.

Every year (for the past 19 years) I do something that takes me so far outside of my comfort zone that it can’t help but make me a better person. Last year I chaired a gala, leading some of the most influential people in town, and raised 285k in 3 months. For 2023, chairing the Men’s Health Group will be terrifying, rewarding, and help a lot of people.

1671/2/23 20:41:311/2/23 20:46:11SarahZweigThis might sound a little lame or lacking ambitioin, but my misogi for 2023 is birthing my third (and final) child in about 2 weeks....and every day focusing on building my family based on love and respect and kindness and hard, joyful, work. Yes, I plan to get back to ultrarunning if my body is ready...I have my race goals laid out, and I plan to up my nutrition game....but nothing is as vital to me this year as conquering the role of mother, working on not reacting, not yelling, and embracing the goodness I have been gifted. A year of presence and love. Does this count??? It's not a one day event, it's a daily effort without a big finish line....but it is this year's purpose.Family10/24/2023

3182/27/23 11:51:512/27/23 12:41:22AndrewSchildcroutIMPROVING MY GAME TO A POINT WHERE I AM ABLE TO PLAY TENNIS WITH MY DAUGHTER.

On the surface, this may not "seem like" a typical Missogi however, it is a far grater challenge for me to accomplish this than simply taking tennis lessons and practicing. One of the biggest challenges I face in this endeavor is improving my health and fitness. The tennis, although certainly a key component and clear motivational factor, is the least of it, becoming lean, strong and healthy is key.

My daughter competes in tennis at a D1 collegiate level and she and her hitting partners are either highly skilled in Tennis (older ex-professionals) and/or in generally great physiacal condition and possess amazing tennis skills.
I am tired of "sitting on the sidelines" as I watch her hit with others during our family vacations. I want to BE IN THE GAME.

In order for me to achieve my Missogi I will need to radically alter my mindset and routine:

1. I WILL improve my tennis game by:
a. working with my coach weekly.
b. playing a practice match (or equivalent) weekly.

2. I WILL lose 50 lbs. by:
a. Radically changing my eating habits by focusing on eating to live and losing the addiction of emotional eating which has guided my choices my entire life food is my fuel.
b. I WILL begin life daily with a combination of fruit till noon and intermittent fasting.
c. I WILL switch to a primarily vegetarian/pescatarian diet.

3. Improve my physical health and stamina:
a. I WILL engage a minimum of 30 minutes a day on my treadmill.
b. I WILL complete the W.O.D. at least 5 days per week.

BACKGROUND: I began formulating this Missogi during a recent Kevins Rule trip this past December while on a family cruise with siblings, kids and cousins. Initially while trying to figure out my Missogi it was going to be focused on health related goals, losing weight etc., yet again! On this front, I began eating more focused on the cruise and was on the treadmill on the ship almost every day. As I finished vacation back on land, while sitting court-side (yet again) watching my daughter play tennis with two men, both older than myself by at least few years (one an ex-collegiate player and the other an ex-professional squash player), finding myself wishing I were not just watching but out there as well, I began formulating this Missogi which is now as clear as anything I can see. I know it will be life-changing on so many levels. I will never forget 2023, the year I took back my health, created yet another bond with my daughter and reset my life on the right track to live healthy and as vibrantly as possible for the next 50 years!

3675/17/23 14:05:215/17/23 14:08:12JossueMoralesI am going to propose to my girlfriend , Emma.
I was really scared to post this bc I felt like this couldn’t be a misogi unless she said “yes”, but then I decided the year defining event is committing to the decision and be willing to go all in and live with the results.
So I will ask this year!!!

I’ve been playing guitar since I was 13, but haven’t picked it up much in the last 10 years. Me and two friends have gotten together and put together a band. We sound really really good. We are doing an open mic night on July 5! We have been practicing since February.
