“Effective leaders don’t make promises they can’t keep. They work hard to deliver the best results and leadership, but they don’t promise that everything will be on point. Are you the type of leader that delivers more than others expect? If you do make promises, keep them. People will trust you more!” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs

Good morning Col Burroughs and all of my brothers and sisters here on VFV. I have found in my life that I could always trust in the Promises of God.
