Sunday, March 4, 2018 - Motivational Quotes of the Day! Good Morning All!
Today is "Find Your Purpose of Life Day! Why Not?
Have you found your purpose; how to overcome obstacles; to stand up & fight for some cause bigger than yourself? Achievement of some moral purpose in your life is proof of your integrity and much more." — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
The Quote in the Picture Today Reads: "The Meaning of life is to find your gift. The Purpose of life is to give it away." — Pablo Picasso
"Find a purpose in life so big it will challenge every capacity to be at your best." — David McKay
"If you can't find out your purpose, find out your passion. For your passion will lead you right into your purpose." — T.D Jakes
"Don't be hard on yourself. It's okay to have a moment of uncertainty about life. It's a transformative period to find your purpose." — Unknown Author
"Having a purpose makes it impossible to merely exist. When you have a definite reason for living, a “why” behind every action, your passions and talents will drive you toward a happy, fulfilling destination." — Lydia Sweatt
"The path to our destination is not always a straight one. We go down the wrong road, we get lost, we turn back. Maybe it doesn’t matter which road we embark on. Maybe what matters is that we embark." — Barbara Hall
"Definiteness of purpose is the starting point of all achievement." — W. Clement Stone
"The person without a purpose is like a ship without a rudder." — Thomas Carlyle

Great quotes today, COL Mikel J. Burroughs! Most of us veterans find purpose in serving. I know service to others has given me a rudder as Carlisle said. His friend Ralph Waldo Emerson said,
“The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.” I think we veterans live that creed.

Lt Col John (Jack) Christensen
One certainly doesn't join the military to get rich. Patriotism and serving a purpose ranks up there.

I have to go with Picasso today. Find your gift to give it away. Anyone that is involved in community service projects understands this concept. It is not always easy to give your time away, but sometimes what you get back makes it worth it. Great quotes to day COL Mikel J. Burroughs

Lt Col Charlie Brown - very noble cause Col. Helping others in need and being the caring and calming voice in a crisis is a hard job.

This is Great Lt Col Charlie Brown. My mother-in-law did the same with The Red Cross. She loved it and was devoted to it. It is fortunate that you have the opportunity to do this. There are the ones who would love to participate in something like this but are restricted by something in their lives that demands all. So glad you found your niche.

Maj Marty Hogan - You're so right, but you do a great job of it and I know you get personal satisfaction out of helping others Marty. I've seen it first hand. Have a wonderful Sunday with you family! God Bless!

Absolutely when I was a Consultant at Accenture some of us volunteered time after hours when we worked 12 hour days but were so fortunate in where we were and we gave weekends and after hours to couch homeless, upgrade schools in poor areas and council vets... and mock interviews and what they did right and what could be improved. And some of the memories I have of my service are so special. And when I pass I have that to go against my sins.
