Will you spend 5 mins everyday to write a story that happened in your everyday life ?
I want to try but it is really hard to commit this habit. By practicing this regularly, we can cultivate a greater appreciation for life and its small, beautiful moments.
The “lens” of storytelling allows you to see your life in new ways and uncover connections and insights you might not have noticed and it allows us to communicate effectively, build relationships, and express ideas in impactful ways.
For me, “homework for life” is useful and important, not only in personal life, but also in career. Sharing life stories shows others that their experiences also matter. It can inspire people to reflect on their own lives and share their stories, creating an effect of connection and self-awareness. For the storyteller, it builds confidence by showing that even ordinary experiences have value and meaning.
I think “homework for life” helps bridge differences between people. Personal stories allow us to share unique perspective while finding common ground with others and build trust and understanding by opening up about experiences.
In my industry, if you are good at telling stories, you will be successful . It is not about the story itself, it is about the way of storytelling.
Lately, I am interested in the stand up comedy. I think all comedians are good at telling stories. Comedians engage their audience with a unique combination of tone, expressive gestures, and well-timed pauses, transforming even simple stories into dynamic and interesting narratives. They find universal truths in everyday experiences ensuring the audience can relate.
Comedians show us that stand-up can become spaces for cross-cultural dialogue and self-expression. The story itself doesn’t need to be extraordinary—the way it’s told makes all the difference. A good storyteller can find meaning and entertainment in anything.
