Today's Message is: "Create Day!" Why Not?

The “Colonel’s” VFV Motivational/Inspirational Quotes & Message of the Day!


Good “Sunday!” Morning “Band of Brothers & Sisters,” and all great connections. Welcome from the “Colonel’s Foxhole” in The Woodlands, TX — 13 March 2022!


Today’s Message is: “Create Day!” Why Not?


“How do great leaders create new leaders? They set an example by being the best leader themselves. With persistence and consistency, they create the right leadership journey. Great leaders admit they will never have all the answers and then, they give away ownership and responsibility as they transition to the new leader. Are you creating your replacement?” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
