  • The secret to telling better stories is to live a more interesting life!
    Whenever you have an experience that really moves you, make it a habit to jot down the story into a notebook or on your phone.
    If you do this consistently you'll start having a library of stories that you can share!

    This man speaks facts, I am always self conscious and felt like I am being left out, to the others that are communating with joy sharing their stories while I couldn't think of anything as I don't have any and felt awkward, I could only stay silent and hope they remember that I am still there

    I was so skeptical whether watch this video or not even though i searched for the topic myself. It's not that I'mma an introvert, i have always been an extrovert who can talk to anyone anywhere BUT in the last few years i have started listening to everyone around, i like how people share their stories with me. But because of too much listening i have completely forgotten how to tell a story of my own, i always think whether the person in front of me would be intrested or not OR whether my story is any good or not. Thank you so much for this video. It was a simple yet very important message for me. Thanks!

    I really liked his point. We should do something new. Scrolling through social media is a habit of people, even mine as well, but it's not worth it if you do this for a long time. Instead of that something new or interesting thing should be done, maybe learning a new skill, language or going on some trip. But, this takes a lot of courage for a lazy person like me 😅.

    So right ! I think the problem is people are afraid of trying new things because they fear failure. But if you can get over that fear of failing you'd be surprised at just how many things you can accomplish.

    It absolutely makes sense cause once you know your position and experience which is already high enough than the average people it's an instant self value or immense self confidence that comes unknowingly as your selves realizes that you're even more than worthy. The sense of Social anxiety and any kind of mental or verbal dilemma then automatically stops by loosing zero effort. Because the root cause of this personality trope is now obliterated and got replaced with the sense of ego.

  • @DarkLordAli95
    @DarkLordAli95 Před rokem +12

    Nope. I disagree with him on that one for a couple of reasons:
    1) people with “boring” jobs are needed. If everyone had his job, then no one would have a job.
    2) some people are more short and concise than others. 2 people can tell the same story in very different ways, and within drastically different time frames.
    I have friends that can spend half an hour telling me a story like they’re drawing me a picture, they have to tell me about every little thing they saw on their journey. then I’ll retell the same story in 2 minutes time. It would be the most mundane story too, but the way they tell it would make it sound so interesting and engaging.
    Think about jokes, which are a type of a story. The way you tell a joke can either make or break the joke.

      In add to this, I've heard great stories told from events that's not happened to them but to someone else they know, or a novel they read. They probably told a better story than the book or person they heard from.

  • @amarramovicnet
    @amarramovicnet Před 6 měsíci

    Guys if you didnt know actually you dont even need to tell a good story, if you are passionate about what you are saying and you have high confidence people will be drawn to it. The reason for that is we are wired to follow and pay attention to people that are high value.

    Here's the thing, I disagree that doing the same things will not lead to a great story.
    A great storyteller can see the wonder in the mundane. It's not always about what you do that creates the story, it's your ability to see the extraordinary in the ordinary that makes the difference.
