The Colonel’s Motivational Quotes of the Day and Week!

Good “Red Friday” Morning Everyone from the “Eagle’s Nest!” ― September 14, 2018!

Today is: “My Decisions or Circumstances Day!” Why Not?

“We live in the land of what I call “The Big PX” with opportunities all around us, therefore our decisions to use our abilities and creativity can change the circumstances of those who don’t have access to “The Big PX”. We can decide to make a difference for those that live without opportunities!” ― COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs

“Circumstance filter the options from which to decide. But, creativity gives us the power to see beyond our current circumstances and limitations.” ― Scott Moore

“Living as a product of our circumstances forces us to look outside of ourselves for a culprit, someone to blame. This leads us to the toxicity of resentment. We blame our boss, our government, our parents, children, partner…” ― Rebecca Perkins

“The power lies in my decisions, my directions, my choices and reactions to the circumstances at hand. I can decide to do nothing, decide to focus on the negative, decide to let a situation or a person define me, decide to let a reaction dictate my worth.” ― Ella Patrice

“I can also decide to take action, decide to look at the positive, decide to define me for me, decide to let my worth come from me and only me.” ― Ella Patrice

“I am myself and my circumstance; if I do not save it, I do not save myself ” ― Jose Ortega Y Gasset

“The hardest thing is the decision to act, the rest is merely tenacity. The fears are paper tigers. You can do anything you decide to do. You can act to change and control your life; and the procedure, the process is its own reward.” ― Amelia Earhart

“When you have to make a decision and do not make it, that is in itself a decision.” ― William James
