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


Today's Message is: "Ray of Light Day!" Why No?

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 — 17 July 2022!


Today’s Message is: “Ray of Light Day!” Why Not?


“Great leaders can shine a ray of light and bring out the best in others. They can make a positive impact on the lives of people they lead. They can be the light that offers wisdom, guidance, and compassion, or they can just be there in someone’s presence offering strength. By shining their inner light, leaders can become a symbol of purpose, hope, and greater calling for others to emulate! When others see leaders that lead by example, it has an incredible positive impact that empowers them and brings out their best. Do you have that inner ray of light as a leader?" — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs

A leader never knows where or when a ray of light will shine through. Because of that they should help everyone they lead develop their full potential.
