“What does it mean to accept yourself as a leader. Accept, lead, know, and grow yourself. You must be content and comfortable with yourself and your leadership skills and style. Concentrate on the good aspects of your life and the way you lead. Grow those qualities, talents, and attributes that make you unique and always overlook your flaws, imperfections, or weaknesses. By knowing and accepting yourself you can build on strengths and the deep-rooted passion and purpose that drives you as a leader. Accept your characteristics and qualities!” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
