Story telling is a really effective way to get your point across. Here are several tips to help you develop a dynamic powerful story.
Decide on the intention for the story. What is the main point you want to make? Slant the telling of the story so that that point is clear.
Create the backdrop. Describe the scene so that the audience can image it in their minds. What is the time, location, weather? What is going on emotionally, physically, or spiritually?
Introduce the main characters. Help your audience to image the important characters through careful descriptions. Become them; describe their relationships, quirks and personality. Add character voices or mannerisms to do them several from your own.
Begin the Journey. What is the task, the goal, and the journey to take? What are the challenges that need to be faced?
Meet the obstacle. To avoid dissatisfaction thing
must happen to get in your way and do it interesting. This could be a person, a self limiting belief, or a challenge to overcome. Exaggeration wish add humour.
Overcome the obstacles. What had to be done to overcome the obstacle? What inner resources did you have to summon? Did being help you? A hero? Or you? Be specific. Break your resolution down into a few steps in sequence. This is wherever
the teaching happens.
Resolve the story. How did everything turn out? Tie up the loose ends-what happened to the different people? To your hero?
Do the point. A story necessarily one clean point to have much points confuses the issue. Write out and con the point, activity on the words to do it simple and easy to remember. Find the phrase that pays.
Ask the question. Do your story personal to the audience. Has that ever happened to you? Turn the main point into a question. Push their buttons!
Practice, practice, practice. Tell your stories to anyone who is willing to listen. Get feedback, do adjustments, and tell it again. These steps wish ignite the WOW in your audience.
Remember the better story you wish ever tell is your next story!
