The “Colonel’s” VFV Motivational/Inspirational Quotes & Message of the Day!
Good “Saturday!” Morning “Band of Brothers & Sisters,” and all great connections. Welcome to the weekend from the “Colonel’s Foxhole” in The Woodlands, TX — 9 April 2022!
Today’s Message is: “No Stress Day!” Why Not?
“How do great leaders cope with stressful situations? They bring a calm and sense of order to the chaos. Don’t overreact and make time sensitive decisions on the spot, but rather prioritize and be purpose driven, focused and alert. Never let anger enter the equation – learn to manage yourself under stress. Set boundaries and control your expectations. Improve your physical and emotional well-being by exercising, get the right amount of sleep, and take personal time to do something you enjoy!” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
