51: Mindset And Self-Improvement With Terry Tucker
Terry Tucker is the founder of Motivational Check. He’s here to share his unique and positive bent regarding the concepts of mindset and self-improvement. As a former NCAA Division I basketball player, SWAT Team Hostage Negotiator, and cancer warrior for the past ten years, he focuses on the healthy aspects of being sick by concentrating on his 4 Truths to help others lead their uncommon and extraordinary life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- As a hostage negotiator, Terry learned the value of trust in any relationship and that listening isn’t just about hearing what’s being said, it’s about actually understanding what is being said.
- As business people we set goals for our business, but we don’t set personal values. When you can tie your goals to your personal values then the fact you believe it with all your heart will actually make those goals easier to achieve.
- Terry’s 4 Truths to help others lead their uncommon and extraordinary life are: 1. Controlling your mind, so it doesn’t control you.
- 2. Embracing the pain and difficulty and using it to make you a stronger and more determined individual.
- 3. Understanding that what you leave behind is what you weave in the hearts of other people.
- 4. Remembering that as long as you don’t quit, you can never be defeated.
- 60 or 70 thousand thoughts cross our minds every day. Every time you see a negative thought go by, stop and challenge that thought. When you’re stopping those negative thoughts, your brain will eventually stop sending them.
BEST MOMENTS
