What can we learn from the greatest storytellers?
“Believe you can and you’re halfway there.”-Theodore Roosevelt
The great storytellers include authors, poets, playwrights, and musicians, amongst others.
The stories and poems they write, along with the shows and songs, all have something in common, they are an effective and powerful form of communication. The great storytellers transport their audiences and take them to different lands, times, places, universes, voyages, all the while, allowing us to experience whatever story they are telling us.
What can we learn from these storytellers?
Like the works of the great storytellers, the stories we tell ourselves and the way we think create our reality.
If we tell ourselves stories that create a positive reality and if we act in accordance with that positive reality, then that becomes our reality. If we tell ourselves stories that put us in a negative light and a negative reality and if we act in that negative reality, then that becomes our reality.
We must be conscious of the stories we tell ourselves. If we catch ourselves creating a negative story and or reality, we have to acknowledge it, and get ourselves back on track.
Be like the great storytellers, transport yourself to a positive place and reality.
Forward, always!
