Words of my mother

My mother, Marian Ness Tucker, wrote an autobiography, "Bloom Where You Are Planted" in her 70's, sometime in the mid-1990's. I offer a link here to people who will be interested to see how one generation can inspire another. I'm almost 70 now, and still am pleased to find myself doing work my parents would have done, and would be proud of me for doing.

And... This book is now a main resource for the book I'm writing about my brother Phil, who led my mom and dad and him to be agents of global change, really :-)

Publications and Writings on Creativity, Courage, and Human Potential

Check out my substack where I explore creativity and courage to illuminate modern heroism, and how to find our own bravery and brilliance.

It's time to collect my thoughts!
Over the years, my writing has wound up here and there on the web, time to get it together:
  • Scribd
  • My Master's Integration Paper: "The Heroes Circle: A Path To Individuation Centered Around Heroic And Creative Journeys" 
My Finding Your Core Power video is from 2014 and looks it – but it still explains the steps of the heroic journey and creative process, how they're related, and how this pattern of courage and creativity is available to you and actionable by you.

Tools I Use in my Practice

The Story Spine is a well-loved improv exercise that helps you create a new story for your life when you use it as a reflective tool. You can search for all sorts of versions and explanations about it. This is my go-to Story Spine: Once upon a time there was ___. Every day, ___. One day ___. Because of that, ___. Because of that, ___. Until finally ___. And ever since that day_____.

What Do You Do No Matter What? And Why? Answering this question can be illuminating. For instance, no matter what, I make sure I have chocolate in the house. I can be sad, happy, alone, expecting company, rich, poor... no matter what I have chocolate in the house. Now that I'm aware that I do this no matter what, I can ask myself does this habit heal me or hurt me? Heal others or hurt others? Or is it just a neutral thing? Does it fit my life values and goals? Do I want to live with it or let it go?

The 5/5/5/5 Reflection can be a great help to making decisions in the moment. Think of what you are going to do or not do and ask yourself, "How will I feel about this action five minutes from now, five hours, five days, five weeks, five, months, five years, fifty years from now?" 

Does it heal me or hurt me? I have not yet found it possible, but I wish there was a way to put every thought and every action (and every mouthful) through this question-filter. It still serves well as a spot-exercise whenever you think of it, or when someone asks your advice.
