#122 Veterans Day Guest Speaker Speech - "BE THE ONE" For all my brothers & sisters in ARMS.

I was tired of explaining “how I felt” to in-take forms. I started missing the brotherhood and cohesiveness, I started to feel alone. I’m sure a lot of us can relate to this, I just wanted to be normal. Nothing more-nothing less. Just a quiet mind and a peaceful heart.So as a final effort, I reached out to OFP while I was failing community college (0.08 GPA). I have this quote or affirmation that I came up with after graduating the OFP program. Which was this. “Irreversible change without regret is cleansing” which complements today's theme or motto of  “be the one” I knew “I was the one” when you can look back at life peacefully. No remorse, no regret, no negative thoughts, emotions, or negative feelings. No self conflicts or worry.DONATE TO "OPERATION FREEDOME PAWS" HERESo I challenge you today, this week, the remainder of the month too. “be the one”Be the one, not all wounds are visible. Life can be an emotional rollercoaster at times,  A simple “hey, how's it going” to the cashier, bank teller, stranger walking by or stop by a VFW any veterans outreach services. Call a close friend or relative, someone who you haven’t spoken to in awhile, and say “Hey I was thinking about you the other day and wanted to see how you were doing because I care about you?”Too close out,I was a sergeant in the Army and I used to tell my soldiers, when you guys become sergeants, express a little vulnerability with your soldiers sometimes, it shows your care, compassion, and that they matter to you. “Be the one” Thank you. Written by Morfett Flores, Owner/Founder of Mogressive Coaching LLC.Website: www.mogressive.comEmail: [email protected] Media @mogressive_coaching
