Good “Monday!” Morning “Burroughs’ Posse Leader from a beautiful clear day with only a few wispy clouds in the distance... A great way to start the day!!!

It is: “Momentum Day!” And just what is Momentum and why it is important!
Definition of momentum: Broadly, it is a property of a moving body that determines the length of time required to bring it to rest when under the action of a constant force or moment. Now that is not as clear as one might like, so here are a few quotes that might provide some insight!

"The one great element in continuing the success of an offensive is maintaining the momentum. " - George C. Marshall

"Sometimes it's very difficult to keep momentum when it's you that you are following." - Andrew Lloyd Webber

"Build confidence and momentum with each good decision you make from here on out and choose to be inspired." - Joe Rogan

"When you find yourself in the thickness of pursuing a goal or dream, stop only to rest. Momentum builds success." - Suzy Kassem

"The most important thing you can do to achieve your goals is to make sure that as soon as you set them you immediately begin to create momentum." - Tony Robbins

And further...

"Momentum helps people perform better than they are normally. When leadership is strong and there is momentum in your organization, then the team is motivated and inspired, and results in higher levels of performance." — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs

Sgt (Join to see) - Good late "Monday" night Kerry. It's been a long day and I'm running far behind... Thanks for the great quotes and your support earlier this morning brother...Thanks for the definition...

“I couldn’t seem to get my momentum going this morning as I prepare for our trip to Costa Rica to work on the Life Readiness Center down there, but I will find it sooner than later. Momentum demand movement and I’m moving now, that is for sure… That reminds me of this quote…

‘Make your own momentum!’ – Unknown Author

May you always start with some small and gain momentum for any project or goal you have started; may your mind, body, and soul be opened to grace, goodness, peace, forgiveness, and a continued bountiful life of purpose; and keep your family safe, secure, happy, and healthy. Get that adrenaline flowing everyone – new week.” – COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs

I hope you are motivated to assist, help, and come alongside others in need. I expect you invest time to share your talents and resources with others to improve their knowledge and skills. I pray that your momentum as a leader is more than sufficient to overcome the friction of government, corporate and/or social bureaucracy. ‘Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Outdo ourselves in honoring one another. … Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, persistent in prayer. Share with the saints who are in need. Practice hospitality.’ [Romans 12:10, 12-13 ESV] my brother-in-Christ Sgt (Join to see).

I hope and pray that you and I place our full trust in the LORD God. I pray that the LORD blesses each of us with discernment to assess our own capabilities and limitations as leaders and as servers/subordinates including family relationships. Do what is necessary for each of us to be trustworthy and motivated servant leaders of those who place their trust and love in us. 'Therefore, be imitators of God, as beloved children. And walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.' [Ephesians 5:1-2 ESV]
I pray for sufficient endurance and momentum for each of YOUR adopted sons and daughters, dear LORD, to persevere and enable others to persevere through the spring into the summer. I pray that each leader who reads this prayer is focused on service to achieve our corporate and individual goals as a servant leader as modeled by the LORD. ‘When he had washed their feet and put on his outer garments and resumed his place, he said to them, “Do you understand what I have done to you? You call me Teacher and Lord, and you are right, for so I am. If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet.’ [John 13:12-14 ESV]
I lift the disabled, those suffering from PTSD, so-called mentally retarded, autistic, and other handicapped children, the medical professionals, and primary caregivers to YOU dear LORD. I pray that YOU bless each caregiver with endurance and grace and that YOU motivate medical professionals and administrators to support the needs of the disabled, those suffering from PTSD, so-called mentally retarded, autistic, and other handicapped children and their caregivers, parents and guardians. I pray that YOU bless each individual who has been diagnosed with PTSD and/or other mental afflictions with HOPE in YOU. ‘For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you. You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart.’ [Jeremiah 29:11-13 ESV]
I pray that you and your family members sleep well Monday night and will awake refreshed and healthy on Tuesday morning.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ.

Good Monday morning Col Burroughs and Posse.
Often we start out with the best of intentions. Then we lose focus and we stop pushing. If you remember that it takes less effort to keep a good project going perhaps you can find the energy to encourage yourself and others to keep it up. Motivation counts for nothing if the forward movement stops. Work to make it a habit and it will almost fuel itself!
