Introduction to My Mission

Life is more than just a series of events; it is a journey we all share. As I embark on my mission to create positive change within our community, I recognize the importance of documenting every step. This blog will take you through my experiences and insights as I navigate both personal and professional growth.

Setting the Stage: July 29, 2024

On a beautiful Monday morning at 5:53 a.m. mountain time, I set off for Seattle. The excitement of the week ahead filled me with energy. My goal was to engage in extensive training, learn about our systems, and understand how others manage their processes. This knowledge would be invaluable as I returned to my role at Secure Pacific.

The Journey Begins

Traveling to Seattle marked the beginning of this week filled with learning and exploration. I decided to document my journey through smaller journal entries throughout the day. This approach allows for a more dynamic sharing of my experiences, contrasting with longer, more drawn-out narratives.

First Impressions of Seattle

Upon landing in Seattle, the local time was 7:11 a.m. The energy of the city was palpable, and I felt eager to dive into the day's activities. My first destination was the office in Tacoma, where I would begin my training and meet my colleagues.

Day One: Training and Exploration

By 9:37 a.m. Pacific time, I was on my way to the Tacoma office. The anticipation of learning about our monitoring systems and meeting the team invigorated me. As I drove, I reflected on the importance of collaboration and knowledge-sharing within our industry.

Engaging with the Team

Arriving at the field office, I was immediately struck by the dedication of my colleagues. I was eager to understand how we monitor security and provide top-notch customer service. Meeting the people in charge of these operations was a highlight of my day.

Insights from the Verification Center

Visiting the verification center was nothing short of a revelation. The advanced technology and systems in place were impressive. It felt like stepping onto the Starship Enterprise, surrounded by numerous computer monitors and high-tech equipment. This experience reinforced my belief in the importance of innovation in security services.

Reflections on the Day

As the day came to a close, I returned to the hotel with a wealth of information and inspiration. The experience of witnessing our operations firsthand was invaluable. I felt blessed to be part of a team dedicated to protecting and supporting our community.

Looking Ahead

Tomorrow promised more learning opportunities, particularly in customer service. I was eager to see how we engage with clients and ensure their needs are met. This journey is not just about professional growth; it is also about building relationships and learning from one another.

Documenting the Journey

Throughout this week, I aimed to capture my experiences through various forms of content—photos, reels, and journal entries. Sharing these moments allows me to connect with others who share similar goals. I believe in the power of storytelling and its ability to inspire change.

Community and Support

As I continue this journey, I invite others to join me. Life is a team sport, and there is always room for more on this mission. By sharing lessons learned, failures, and victories, we can collectively create a positive impact on society.

Conclusion: The Importance of Sharing

At the end of each day, I reflect on the importance of sharing my journey. It is not just about my personal growth; it is about fostering a community that supports one another. By documenting my experiences, I hope to encourage others to pursue their dreams and contribute to meaningful change.

Join Me on This Journey

If you resonate with my mission, I encourage you to follow along. Together, we can learn, grow, and make a difference. Your support through likes, shares, and subscriptions helps amplify our message and reach more people.

Final Thoughts

As I wrap up this journal entry, I am filled with gratitude for the experiences and lessons learned. This journey is just beginning, and I am excited about what lies ahead. Thank you for being part of this adventure.

Life is a journey and we are all in it together. On this journey, our goal is to support and protect as many people as we can. If you believe we can be the change that we need in society, I invite you to follow the life with Justin Stephens.

Joe as we live life to do that change, let the adventure begin. Good morning. Good morning.

Good morning. It is July 29, 2020. T four.

It is a beautiful Monday morning at 05:53 a.m. mountain time. I am on my way to the airport.

I am going to Seattle for the week and I am going to be doing a bunch of training and really getting to understand our systems and processes and how other people are running them so that I can get back and get to work. I'm very excited. It's gonna be an awesome week.

So I'm this week I'm gonna try and do a lot more little journal entries. I'm gonna try and take you with me throughout my day. Instead of one big block or a couple big blocks, gonna target two three minute entries and then we'll just transition between them and see how that goes.

I'm gonna be doing my reels and taking photos, creating content for secure Pacific and we are gonna get this boat floating. I'm very excited. Anyways, that's my quick update for the morning.

I will talk to you all soon. It welcome to Seattle. Local time is 711.

Please keep your seatbelt on. Our pilots will turn off the Seatbelt sign when it's safe to get up completely stowed until we reach the gate. If your phone is close, you can take it out of room.

Like phone with all. Good afternoon, everybody. Well, I guess it's still good morning.

It is 937 Pacific time. I am in Seattle, Washington, headed out to my first day on site. I'm going to our office up here in Tacoma, so should be fun.

No, Everett Tacoma is Wednesday because I think Tacoma is south. I'm going to the north of Seattle right now. So I am on my way.

And it's going to be today I'm in the field office and I'm going to be seeing how we're doing all the monitoring and meeting the people in charge of that. And tomorrow it's customer service. It's.

It's awesome. I feel so blessed to be on this journey. So we will see tomorrow what comes of that and I will update you again later on how today's going.

I made it sound security. I gotta figure out how to get in. It looks like this is where it should be at some level.

Look how cool that is, I want to wrap my car with secure Pacific stuff. Wouldn't that be awesome? Hello? All right, well, I am headed back to the hotel. Got some follow up and some other work I gotta get done.

Hey, being in the verification center was awesome, and seeing how it works and seeing what really sets us apart from a lot of other security companies was mind blowing. I'm really excited. It was honestly like being on the Enterprise Star ship in Star Trek.

Tons of computer monitors, some speakers where it's pulling up the videos that are getting flagged or the audios that are getting flagged, so we can literally listen in and verify what's going on before contacting the authorities. It was super cool. It was a ton of fun, met a lot of cool people, and yeah, overall, I'm excited to see where it goes next.

Thanks for watching today's journal entry. The best way to support my work is by following, liking, and sharing the content I create on a regular basis. I appreciate you being on this journey through time with me and have a wonderful day.
