E26. Col. Regina Sabric- Jinx on the Road

**This is a leadership Episode**

Hello and welcome to TAMF, Today’s guest is the decorated commander of the 419 fighter wing, of the AIR Reserves., and has flown multiple aircraft including the f15, f16 and f35 in both combat and non combat missions. She is a highly accomplished and intelligent leader.

For todays skillset challenge,

Col Sabric talks about being open to options that may take you in a different direction than planned. Wherever you are, make it the best.  This is a mindset challenge.  We are often our own worst enemies, we may look at a turn in the road as taking us off our intended goal, but our attitude and ability to make the most of a situation, is what will propel you forward to something greater than you could have planned. 

Where in your life are you feeling frustrated?  How can you turn that situation into a benefit?  Don’t just try and force yourself into positive thinking when it isn’t authentic.  We all know that doesn’t work.  Take the time to figure out a way to purpose an unintended situation into something that will help you to grow.  Take the challenge, and tell me about it on the TAMF website or social media sites.
