The “Colonel’s” VFV Motivational/Inspirational Quotes & Message of the Day!
Good “Wednesday & Hump Day!” Morning “Band of Brothers & Sisters,” and all great connections. Welcome from the “Colonel’s Foxhole” back in The Woodlands, TX — We arrived back in the USA yesterday afternoon on our return from “Operation Costa Rica!” —26 January 2022!
Today’s Message is: “Write Your Story Day!” Why Not?
“When it is all said and done and you hang-up your leadership belt or they fold your flag for the very last time, what will your story be like as a leader? It should be an awesome collection of stories (successes and failures, lessons learned, the told and untold events. Your leadership story will not be like anyone else’s. It’s your own, so make sure your perspective and behavior reflect who you truly are as a leader every day and have the courage to write your story!" — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs

Good afternoon Col Burroughs and welcome back to the states. My story these days revolves around computer problems. LOL We all have our own stories, some interesting and some not so, however they are our own story. Have a blessed day in the Lord, my friend.
Welcome home, think you found it a bit cooler in Texas. Everyone has a different story, I just hope mine helps people know what to, and not to, do!
Thanks Colonel, glad the trip went well.
Good Wednesday morning Colonel.
