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


Today's Message is: "Grace 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 — 27 November 2022!


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


“What does it mean to lead with grace? Leaders that lead with grace embody certain characteristics like being ‘cool and calm’ under pressure and making others feel a sense of ease. They inspire those who follow them and selflessly provide for the needs of others. To lead with grace means that leaders recognize that leadership is not all about them, it’s about the others they lead. Can you lead with grace?” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
