Tell me something ——–

Imagine for a minute that I am telling you about how you can improve yourself.

I am telling you, you can do this and that —— .

I am telling you what I know in this boring, lecture format.

Would you be interested to listen to me? Would you remember my lesson when you need it? Would you be excited to share what you have heard from me to your friends?

Most likely not.

Communication has a lot to do with the way you talk than actually what you are talking about.

Your audience (whether that is one person or many) is attracted to you by the way you tell what you know.

That means, it should not be boring.

It should be exciting.

And the best way to do that is by telling stories that are related to what you are talking about.

For example:

In my above example of telling you boringly how to improve yourself, how about if I change the way I am telling you my message.

The message is the same but I tell you the same message by telling you a story.

Like this:

A story about sharpening a pencil!

Now, aren’t you more likely to remember the pencil when it comes to self-improvement?

Wouldn’t you use the same analogy in any area of your life that you want to improve?

More likely so.

Lesson: Tell a story. People remember a story.
