I took this from Terry's myspace page and it is a
prime example of how Terry lived!
"I would share some of the things that
have truly helped me get through everyday. Some are simple, some are
obvious, but I think they are all worth keeping in mind each day.
1. Smile as much as you can. It makes you more approachable, it improves your self-confidence, and it just generally makes you feel better. 2. Never settle! It can be scary to give up something that is good enough to try something better, but in my opinion, the potential regret of never trying is the scariest of all. 3. When people ask how you are, don't say, "fine," "all right", or "OK." Say something really upbeat like "always well! "I couldn't be better" or even "super fantastic!" You will be surprised at how this simple thing makes a huge positive effect on how people respond to and perceive you. 4. Never pass up an opportunity to make someone's day a little brighter. It often takes such little effort, but it can truly make someone's day. 5. Be as generous as you can be. One way or another, it will come back to you ten-fold. 6. Dress for success. Always over-dress before you under-dress. It will change the way both others perceive you, as well as the way you perceive yourself. 7. Be honest, and be ethical. This is the best way to win over friends, colleagues, clients, and anyone that you come across. What it all boils down to is that all relationships - personal and business - are about trust and respect. 8. Exercise and drink lots of water. You will feel better, you will have more energy, and you will need less sleep each day, effectively giving you more time in each day! 9. When you appreciate something someone has done for you, let them know. Dont assume they know you are grateful for their assistance! It will make them more inclined to do it again in the future, and it will create or strengthen your bond with that person. 10. Try to learn something new each day. Maybe it's just a new word, maybe it's a fact about an old friend, or maybe it's just something you never noticed before. " -Terry Stuckey "My son is my heart and soul"
