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


Good “Sunday!” Morning “Burroughs’ Posse,” and all great connections. Welcome for the LAST time from the “Eagle’s Nest” in The Woodlands, TX! — 5 September 2021!


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


“Walking away as a true leader means you’re exercising control and good decision-making power. I’m making my own choice rather than letting any type of toxic leadership control me!” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs

I will continue to post the “Colonel’s” Motivational/Inspirational Quotes and Message of the day on several different social media platforms. Those and Warriors for Life (WFL) Online Peer Group Support can be found at: https://victoryforveterans.org/blog/


“I will also leave my Profile here on RallyPoint active for those who need to reach out to me for support and Warriors for Life (WFL). I just won’t actively participate on RallyPoint going forward. The other great influencers will lead the way going forward. I want to thank all the incredible connections and friends that I’ve made over the last 7 ½ years here on RP and on the road as I crossed the country over the last 4 years on my Harley. The support and friendship will last a lifetime and we’ll meet again on the road.” Eagle 6 Out!
