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

Let’s “Remember Everyone Deployed” around the world today and every day until they come home!

Good “R.E.D. Friday” Morning “Band of Brothers & Sisters, Connections, Friends, Warriors, & Patriots!”  Welcome to the end of the week from the “Colonel’s Foxhole” in Conroe, TX — October 10, 2025

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

“Leadership is more about connecting and building strong relationships.  It’s about influencing people to go above and beyond their normal capabilities!  Leadership is less about having an ego, or being the center of attention. It’s less about what you say and more about who you really are."  — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs, CEO, Victory for Veterans, Inc. (VFV)
