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


“What are Warrior Leaders? Each warrior leader is one who knows when and where to fight the good fights and pick and choose their battles. They don’t fight for every issue, instead they select the problems and confrontations that have meaning and purpose; things that are worth fighting for! They know when to let go of the rest. They don’t yell or argue. Warrior leaders don’t react immediately, they pause, plan, evaluate, and choose the right time to get involved. Be a leader that knows the virtue of the true warrior and learn to save your emotional energy each day and don’t fight battles that don’t matter. Be prepared for the ones that do! Be the warrior leader ready to stand up and defend the people you serve!” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs

Probably the biggest thing that sets great leaders apart from others is their ability to know which battles to fight.
