What does it mean to Live Fortis?
If you want to understand Fortis then you have to understand the philosophy that guides it. Life presents all of us with obstacles, many of which are daunting, scary, and seemingly insurmountable. Often, we shy away and hide so as to avoid potential failure. To Live Fortis means to look at obstacles with a drive that relentlessly pursues success. When those words are first read, many do not understand them truly. They mean that after you have failed tens or hundreds of times, you still strive forward, you do not look back and dwell, but rather you move in a positive direction. It is easy to write these words but hard to live by them. To Live Fortis means to act out a philosophy ever day and to do so with the assistance of fellow Fortis-minded individuals.
This blog is going to be more than just about the principles. It will be about training, nutrition, life, academics, sports, and leadership. But its foundation will always be the Fortis philosophy of determination, perseverance, self-discipline, and integrity.
Train Hard. Eat Well. Live Fortis.
