The “Colonel’s” VFV Motivational/Inspirational Quotes & Message of the Day!
Good “Thursday” Morning “Band of Brothers & Sisters, Connections, Friends, & Patriots!” Welcome from the “Colonel’s Foxhole” in Conroe, TX — 27 February 2025
Today’s Message is: “Real Day!” Why Not?”
“Not every day in leadership will be a ‘cakewalk!’ Real leadership is facing challenges and obstacles head-on. Real Leaders ‘face the music’ by taking responsibility when things go wrong and never blame others. Be ready to have ‘real’ courage and show up even if the music turns from bad to worse!” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs, CEO, Victory for Veterans, Inc. (VFV)
