The Colonel's Motivational Quotes of the Day and Week!
Good "Red Friday" Morning Everyone — August 24, 2018!
We have 18 weeks and 130 days until 2019!
Today is: "The Smallest Step Day!" Why Not?
If you want to move up to the "Big Steps" in life, then learn to take small steps first — WIP (Work in Progress) — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
The Quote in the Picture Today Reads: "Sometimes the smallest step in the right direction ends up being the biggest step of your life. Tip Toe if you must, but take the step." — Unknown Author
"Everything can be achieved through gradual steps — one small step at a time: overcoming fears, fulfilling dreams... anything you wish to be different from the way it is.” — A.J. Darkholme
"God is calling you to change the world one life at a time and one small step at a time. Begin today where you are." — Dillon Burroughs
"Small steps may appear unimpressive, but don't be deceived. They are the means by which perspectives are subtly altered, mountains are gradually scaled, and lives are drastically changed." — Richelle E. Goodrich
"If you concentrate on small, manageable steps you can cross unimaginable distances." — Shaun Hick
"You need to be content with small steps. That's all life is. Small steps that you take every day so when you look back down the road it all adds up and you know you covered some distance. It took me a long time to accept that, but it's true. You need to have patience." — Katie Kacvinsky
"Take small steps every day and one day you will get there." — John Wooden

"Develop an attitude of gratitude, and give thanks for everything that happens to you, knowing that every step forward is a step toward achieving something bigger and better than your current situation." Brian Tracy
Important to keep moving forward step by step. We don't see the progress so much on a day to day level but when you look back over time you see how far you've come. I am particularly conscious of this as I do rehab right now. I am impatient for change on a daily basis but in three weeks, I have moved from a walker to a cane to independent walking, ridden a bike, etc. Daily, it is just one foot in front of the other as I try for more distance. I keep gratitude as I am conscious of the release from pain and the growing ability of my leg to respond once again.

"Gratitude" wakes me up in the morning and gets me to sleep at night. My night-time prayer is reciting my "gratitude list" which is basically naming my family one by one with thanks and sending each a blessing! Because I usuallu fall asleep before I finish the list, I start at the other end from time to time so that they all get blessed.

Good Red Friday Mikel and all of RallyPoint! I like the quote, "Take small steps every day and one day you will get there" by Coach Wooden. There is a profound truth in what he said.

Good R.E.D. Friday All. COL Mikel J. Burroughs, I have really enjoyed your posts this week. You have given me (dare I say US) much to chew on: clear vision-> once in a lifetime opportuny-> choices-> destiny/fate-> journey. As my wise Great Grandmother would say, “well, come on now, what are you waiting for”. Thank you Sir!
