“Live life your own way. Live in the present, not the past. Do things you love to do your own way!” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
The “Colonel’s” VFV Motivational/Inspirational Quotes & Message of the Day!
Good “Thursday!” Morning “Band of Brothers & Sisters,” and all great connections. Welcome from the “Colonel’s Foxhole” in Conroe, TX — 15 August 2024!
Today’s Message is: “Own Way Day!” Why Not?
“Leadership isn’t about doing everything your own way. The ask is to help others find their own way. Great leaders allow others to find their own path. They provide intent and direction for the way ahead, then they get out of the way. This is called trust and it’s earned both ways. So leaders, make sure you get out of your own way!” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
