Go Be Great

More about Terry Tucker:

I have reinvented myself frequently over my professional career. After I graduated from college at The Citadel (where I played NCAA Division I basketball), I was employed in the Marketing Department at the corporate headquarters of Wendy’s International in Dublin, Ohio. From there, I worked in hospital administration for Riverside Methodist Hospital in Columbus, Ohio. After getting married and moving to California, I became the Customer Service Manager for an academic publishing company in Santa Barbara. When our daughter was born and we moved to Cincinnati, Ohio, I became a police officer with the Cincinnati Police Department, where I was a SWAT Hostage Negotiator. In 2004, I obtained my Masters's degree from Boston University. Following a family relocation to Texas, I started a school security consulting business and coached high school girls basketball. Each time I took on a new job, I had to develop new skills and faced different challenges. There was always a significant learning curve with every new position.

In addition to my faith, I use my 4 Truths to guide the decisions I make in my life. These 4 Truths are:

If you are besieged with anything in your life, know there are people available, able, and willing to help you. I understand what it is like to fight for your life. I hope the quotes, stories, videos, recommendations, and podcast recordings on these pages will encourage and motivate you to fight on against whatever is hindering you. However, if you are overwhelmed by what is going on in your life, please have the courage to contact the National Suicide Prevention Hotline at: 800-273-8255 (USA Only).

Why do I do what I do:

Poll:  WHAT STOPS YOU FROM REACHING YOUR GOAL?

308 people landed on that poll

67% said DOUBT

17% FEAR

16% MAKING EXCUSES

What happens when you don't see your purpose clearly, cast your vision accurately, or create goals that are aligned?  

You get frustrated because you can't hit a target you can't see. If you've ever felt this way, then keep reading.

YOU CAN’T HIT A TARGET THAT YOU CAN’T SEE

1. Define Your Purpose

2. Cast Your Vision

3. Set Specific, Measurable Goals

4. Take Action

5. Celebrate Your Progress

So, if you're feeling lost and uncertain of what to do next, follow these steps to get clear on your goals. Define your purpose, cast your vision, set specific, measurable goals, and take action. And don't forget to celebrate your progress along the way!

Let me begin with this declaration: Opportunity is Not Random - we talked about this in a previous episode and I want to really drill this in because we need to get out of this idea that opportunity is random.  Statements like:  I just happened to come across something...some random person... etc.  No...the opportunities that you prepare for are not random.  The abundance that's been promised to you is not random.

The Lord has told you what is good.  He told you what he wants from you: Do what is right to other people.  Love being kind to each other. And live humbly, trusting your God. (Micah 6:8)

Are you interested in Proactive HEALth of the Mind, Body, Heart, and Soul?  Having all four in balance is key to maximizing the life God has planned for you.  Sharing the love and word of Jesus, all while moving your body and improving your HEALth, is my ministry mission ~ worshipping with your mind, body, heart, and soul (Mark 12:30).  My offerings cover you in protective love (Psalm 91:4).

More About Laura:

I am blessed to be the mother of compassionate and amazing daughters who has become my rocks. They are what drive me to be the best version of myself. In addition, I am an informatics geriatric nurse with a passion for  Proactive and Protective HEALth through nutrition and safer skincare choices. I have completed a YogaFaith immersion for my R-YFT-200-hour instructor training.

Through my journey of HEALth, it was apparent to me that without my spiritual health, I would not be able to move to the level I know God has planned for me, His daughter. This journey has been such a beautiful, enriching, humbling, and empowering process. Our bodies are the temples that God has provided to us ~  my soul is my first priority - Eternal life vs. Temporary life. As I share my story  (which is actually HIS story), I hope I am able to shine my love of Jesus Christ, God, and the Holy Ghost on all who I encounter in life. That is my ultimate goal for my journey so I can reach my ambition of eternal life.

We must be aware of what we take into our bodies, the products we expose our bodies/ skin, and the community we surround ourselves. I love meeting positive like-minded people. YOU, your family, your loved ones, and your friends deserve to function at the ultimate level - Mind, Body, Heart, and Soul!♥

Have a BLESSED day and share your AMAZING SMILE & LOVE!  Love is always the answer.  As John 13:34 says I give you a new command: Love each other. You must love each other as I have loved you. (ICB)

Laura,

Your Sister in Christ

How to Be Ready for Opportunity 

Do you know someone who seems to get all the best deals and opportunities? Maybe they always seem to be ready to buy that stock, go on that vacation, or take that job offer? It’s honestly not a trick, and it’s not magic. And your friend is not better than you. Most likely they’re just prepared.

The truth is, an opportunity is always around you, and it will always avail itself to you when you’re ready for it. 

How to Be Ready for Setbacks

Within an entire lifetime, there will be both bad and good things happening. You’ll have times that seem to burst you into a new life quickly and times when you feel like you can’t get ahead no matter what you do. 

However, if you can keep it all in perspective, it is possible to be ready for most typical life setbacks while overcoming those that you simply have no way to know will happen, such as pandemics.
