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 — 22 May 2022!


Today’s Message is: “Meaning of Life Day!” Why Not?


“What is the true meaning of life for a leader? In order for leaders to get people to really care about a vision they need to understand what matters to them. What creates that sense of value that people bring to the organization? It’s not about making people happy but helping them find the true purpose in what they do and what matters to them. The true meaning of life for a leader is creating the type of environment where people feel connected to the vision, the purpose, and the mission! What is your meaning in life as a leader?” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
