Once you start to write each day, you will find out a lot about yourself. When you force yourself to sit down and write, you will start to find more answers. Especially, you will get a lot more questions.

With all these questions your curiosity will increase. You start to ask more questions, read more books & hang around more people. You become a learning machine.

What I’ve found is the importance of time for reflection & calmness. Otherwise, all the pressure & responsibility from your daily life will become too intense.

Balance

When you get time to calm down and reflect on your life. You will start to find out what’s really important, and what you should focus on.

Today I decided to spend some hours in the forest. Afterward, I felt calm, confident & ready to take more actions. I decided to learn more about storytelling.

Storytellers

The people who are able to tell great stories have the power to capture people’s attention. How can you become a great storyteller?

A great way is to watch great movies and really think about the structure of a movie. To understand how to have a good beginning, middle, and end.

With the lessons you learn from movies, you will be able to enhance the stories you tell.

With the time I had this evening, I decided to learn how to become a better storyteller. To relax & study at the same time, it’s a great combo.

Your challenge

Write down three things you will do this month, in order to become a great storyteller.
