COL Mikel J. Burroughs: Happy Monday, to you one and All!
As a professional singer, I look back; and realize that I had to change my habits of: I-can't-do-it, lack of confidence, fear, negative thinking, and, crying- into I Can Do This, I AM Confident, I Am fearless, Positive Thinking, and happy tears of JOY! I have a truism: If one thinks that one can: One CAN!
I had to also change a very, very painful past: into an Awesome and present future. (Staying in the moment.) Careers aren't tricky things: they are hobbies turned into careers. A new and promising future takes Risking, Trying, Trying Again, Failing, and Failing Again and Again, and finally: Picking One's Self Up, Dusting One's Self Off and Challenging One's Self into the Future!
I truly hope that I have helped you.

I pray that you are content with each one who loves you, my friend and sister-in-Christ SPC Margaret Higgins.
Heavenly Father, YOU accept each one of those human beings who YOU elected before time began. There are no preconditions for human beings to salvation. Salvation is entirely by YOUR grace as YOU regenerate the heart of each of YOUR adopted sons and daughters.
LORD, I pray that each of YOUR adopted children is content with those they love and that we focus on improving our own habits and nobody else’s [excluding those who are professional trainers in the military and elsewhere.]
Bring peace to each family who is in turmoil and give wisdom to resolve conflicts and a desire to be peacemakers and accept confessions and forgive with no reservations.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ.

Changing and developing habits can be one of the toughest things we do. however, if you can accomplish or not accomplish them on a consistent basis, you can change your behavior.

Good Morning COL. I was about to post the pledge and check for this one more time then head for the shop...."Good Habits day" .....
"To change your life, you must first change your habits." ― Unknown Author
Or get started with good habits from the beginning....That is what we all try and teach our children, good habits...Based on our experiences with our own bad habits...
Teach your children the ways to make and how important decisions can be....
They will slowly but surely refine their good habit sensors and make that choice every time as a matter of "Habit"...
There you go...Decisions and choices, the more you make them.....The more they turn into habits...Who'd of thunk?
Have a super day COL Mikel J. Burroughs Good Morning to the Ladies...I will post the pledge from the shop, I'm burning daylight....!
Rock the Day Brother...

Great thoughts on teaching our children the right habits for success and breaking the ones that will lead to disaster (it's called parenting). Something some parents have forgot to do. They have no one to blame, but themselves. Parenting is not easy, it's not supposed to be, and it takes hard work by both parents to bring up their children with respect and respect for others, (Building Good Habit, and getting rid of Bad Habits). You and your family have a wonderful Monday evening Alan K.
