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 — 7 August 2022!


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


“Can Leadership and Friendship Coexist? Leadership is about relationships, the connections that are made, and friendships leaders create. True leadership is the concern about the well-being of others and true leaders will put people ahead of themselves. There are common traits between leadership and friendship. A great trait about leadership and friendship is loyalty. There is a shared devotion between leadership and friendship, it’s called responsibility and commitment. Trust is also very important in having confidence in each other. Both honesty and compassion share a place with leadership and friendship. The key to having leadership and friendship coexist, is never undermine alliances, never compromise relationships or the mission, and know when and how to separate friendship from leadership. Can you balance leadership and friendship?” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
