The Power Of A Great Story
We’ve all given advice. Some of it was requested . . . most of it wasn’t.
And after many years of offering plenty of unsolicited counsel, I’ve learned something:
It’s usually better to be asked.
And when someone does ask for your advice, I’ve found it helps to come from a place of experience . . . rather than a place of superior knowledge.
Because when you speak from knowledge, (translation . . . you know better) you unintentionally put the other person a rung or two lower on the ladder.
And that distance? It makes your message harder to hear.
But when you speak from experience, you’re not lecturing.
You’re just telling a story.
A story about something that happened to you . . . and letting the other person take from it whatever insight they find useful.
It feels less like being talked at . . . and more like being invited to think.
That’s why stories work so well.
From the ancient Chinese . . . to the Buddha . . . to Jesus . . .
George Lucas for God sake.
Stories stick.
And your stories come from your experience.
They’re authentic – home grown. And they teach . . . without preach.
So the next time someone asks for your advice, instead of telling them what you know . . . Share the fertilizer of a story . . . and watch them grow.
All the best,
John
