YOU ARE YOUR STORY
Episode Details
The dictionary defines story as "an account of imaginary or real people and events told for entertainment."
Wow! The problem phrase in that definition is "told for entertainment." If all stories are told for entertainment, then they don't have much to do with our happiness, relationships, and income. They are just forms of distraction.
That's a dangerous view of stories. Why? Because every action you take, the place you decide to live, the people you spend time with, your happiness and unhappiness, your wealth or struggle for money are all the result of the narratives that you create and allow to shape and define your life.
If you want more empowerment and joy in your life, start thinking of stories as collections of thoughts organized in such a way as to create meaning in your life. That meaning can elevate your or diminish you. It can fill you with energy, trust, and hope, or it can fill you with anxiety, mistrust, and dread.
Everything you believe about yourself, others, and the world, is based on STORIES.
Religious stories shape our beliefs about the origins and the ultimate goal of our lives. Political stories define our degree of freedom or our bondage. Your personal stories determine your happiness or suffering, your social status, and your income.
Here's the thing. Most people are unaware of their constant storytelling. And, they shy away from taking responsibility for their stories. So, their stories are creating their lives and their destinies.
This podcast will explore the implications of that on your happiness, income, and freedom. Plus, it will show you how to step up and choose to Change Your Story & Change Your Life.
