Today is a great day to redeem ourselves from our past mistakes… be inspired and look forward to a better day and future… Why Not?https://www.victoryforveterans.org/post/the-colonel-s-vfv-motivational-inspirational-quotes-message-of-the-day-271The “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 — 24 July 2022!Today’s Message is: “Redeem Day!” Why Not?“The very best leaders will make mistakes along the leadership journey.. The most important thing for a leader to redeem him or herself is to own up to the mistake as quickly as possible. A leader with character and integrity will never try to cover it up or blame someone else. True leadership is owning up to the mistake, being proactive, not defensive, and taking action to fix it. Leaders that lead from the front will implement a recovery strategy and put the mistake in the ‘Lessons learned’ filing cabinet. You can redeem yourself by forgiving yourself. You can’t let a bad mistake impair your ability to make a great decision in the future. It takes practice!” — COL (Ret) Mikel BurroughsJoin Volunteer, Veteran & Former First Responder SGT Steve McFarland TONIGHT for "Healing Through Faith" edition of Warriors for Life (WFL) Online Peer Group Support sponsored and presented by Victory for Veterans, Inc.Invite a friend, tell a friend, and share with your friends they may need support or know someone who needs support!Get connected, get involved, with Veterans, Service Members, First Responders, Military Families/Spouses, and Caretakers/Caregivers every Sunday Night!TONIGHT's Topic: "But God!"https://www.victoryforveterans.org/post/tonightjoinstevefor-butgod-for-healingthroughfaith-editionofwarriorsforlife-wflDrop in Monday Morning for a "Coffee Break!" with Volunteer, Veteran, and Peer Support Specialist SFC (Ret) Rick Williamson as part of Victory for Veterans (VFV) "Warriors for Life" (WFL) Online Peer Group Support Program, where "Sharing is Caring!"
