Episode Synopsis
In this episode of the Chasing Thoughts podcast Mindy and Keith talk with Terry Tucker who is an author and a speaker. Terry talked about his life and going from a college basketball player into business world and then his career as a police officer. But today, Terry is living his best life after being diagnosed with a rare form of melanoma and given 2 years to live, which, incidentally, was 12 years ago.This conversation is an inspiring look at a man who decided that cancer may take his life, but it won’t touch his mind, heart, or soul. Terry shares his secrets for strengthening our character when that character is challenged by the circumstances we can find ourselves in throughout life. We always have a choice, Terry reminds us, even when life brings something our way that would not be our choice, we can choose how we will respond to that situation. Terry has found his purpose in living his life outwardly, giving of himself to others, and he explains how that is returned to him in the energy he receives from living his purpose. We hope you enjoy.Chapters00:00:00 Introduction00:01:05 Terry’s story00:03:48 The big “C”00:06:21 Going through the stages of grief00:08:28 Purpose00:11:22 Imagine Heaven00:15:05 Living his purpose00:22:41 Our physical identity00:33:14 Terry’s values00:40:36 When your character is challenged00:43:04 Difficult things strengthens our resolve00:46:24 Fail often—especially when you’re young00:54:58 Cancer can take my body, but it can’t touch my mind, my heart, or my soulTo find out more about Terry Tucker:Website—motivationalcheck.comInstagram—https://www.instagram.com/sustainableexcellenceauthor/LinkedIn—https://www.linkedin.com/in/terry-tucker-9b5605179/X—https://twitter.com/terrytucker2012If you would like to check out Terry’s book:https://www.amazon.com/Sustainable-Excellence-Principles-Uncommon-Extraordinary/dp/1951129512If you are interested in the book about near death experiences:https://www.amazon.com/s?k=Imagine+Heaven&i=stripbooks&crid=BHAR6L4EZ59&sprefix=imagine+heaven%2Cstripbooks%2C81&ref=nb_sb_noss_1If you would like to know more about Mindy or Keith you can find them here:Mindy Aisling (@mindyaisling)[email protected] Dauch (@mastercheeseee)[email protected] on Chasing Thoughts:https://www.mindyaisling.com/chasingthoughts.html
