“If you intend on leading others you need to give them a reason to follow you by instilling pride and giving them solid reasons for being a part of a great organization. Recognize their accomplishments, so they are proud of themselves. You must also take pride in what you’ve done and how far you've come. Always look ahead to the future, how you will get there, and take pride in how far you and the team will go. How far have you come and how far will you go?" — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
