The 365 Commitment

Day 108 – Story Telling

Not a new concept for me, but yesterday became inspired once again regarding story telling. Ida Glass a famous radio personality said – “Great stories happen to the people who tell them.”

I thought about this statement at length this morning and realized there are many meanings behind this quote. Clearly the ability to tell a story and an audience to listen to that story is and important consideration. I am starting to view my journey on The 365 Commitment as a single story that I will be able to tell one day.

This story has helped me to visualize my future ambitions and has also forced me to think outside of my own little world and contemplate the audience. Am I really working toward something that will benefit individuals? This seems to be the question that the most successful people I know are able to answer.

So for today , I am going to contemplate the stories that I can tell.
