The Importance of Story in Your Life

Posted by Katharine Whiting On 12 April 2010 one Commented | Under: Uncategorized

Yesterday Chris Brogan suggested his readers write a short blog about The Importance of Story in Your Life.  The concept came from a book he recently read by Don Miller called Million Miles in a Thousand Years.  I have not had the opportunity yet to read this book but will share thoughts about the concept:

If I were to look at my life in decades with each one being a chapter I would have six, each unique with it’s own story.  But there is a common thread running through the various chapters of my life and that is making the best of my relationship with my family, my friends and my God.

I have been blest to have a varity of settings for my story from around the world and have experienced many cultures and personalities and lifestyles.  Other peoples stories have impacted my own and in a sense have fine tuned me.

I recently found that as I wrote the thoughts and meaning of my story down I could gain more insight.  This was accomplished with the ideas given by Kim Ades and her Frame of Mind coaching using journaling.  By journaling our thoughts and feelings we are sharing our story with ourselves and perhaps then better able to share our authentic self with others.  I would like to read Don Miller’s book.  This blog may be a means of acquiring a copy…..
