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

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


Good “Monday!” Morning “Band of Brothers & Sisters,” and all great connections. Welcome to the new week from the “Colonel’s Foxhole” in The Woodlands, TX — 28 March 2022!


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


“Great leaders focus on actions not intentions. Good intentions without action can be meaningless. If you want the desired outcomes, then you need to take your best intentions and turn them into viable quality actions. Leaders must follow through from their intentions to the actions that lead to tangible results. It’s achieved by effective communication, aligned expectations and vision, continued growth, learning and development, and closing the deal – accomplishment or failure. Then you learn or correct your intentions.” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs

Good afternoon Col Burroughs and all of my brothers and sisters here on VFV. My intention was to respond to this much earlier today, but the Col did not post this until 1minute before I walked out the front door, to take our fur baby to the Veterinarian in the State of Missouri. That is roughly 45 minutes from our home. Im not placing any blame, just stating the reason for my lateness. LOL I find this topic today of great interest to me and I hope for everyone else.
