20MRH: Story-Telling

Talking Points
  • The Starless Sea re-inspired me to talk about the stories we tell ourselves
  • The Think-Feel-Do cycle, and where the stories fit in and how they amplify our emotions
  • To shift our behaviours we must first hear and understand these stories
  • The conscious and subconscious origins of our stories (limiting beliefs, conditions, values, etc.)
  • My own example; anxiety, panic and self-fulfilling prophecies
  • The story of what we remember versus what actually happened, with the humility of honest hindsight ... it's own rabbit hole 🐇
  • It's hard, especially when they re-play like broken records
  • Once we're aware of our stories, we can own and choose the stories, create new ones
  • Changing our stories will change our lives; but it takes courage, creativity and a willingness to listen
  • We can't always control thoughts, but we can always control the stories
  • Interesting aside, listen to the way a close friend tells our stories
