Calling the stuff in our head a narrative isn’t quite accurate; it’s not a singular story line.
There are two stories going on at any given time.
There’s the story we tell ourselves. It’s how we feel about wearing face masks, jogging long distance or drinking craft beer. It’s personal, internal and sometimes subconscious.
Then there’s the story that it tells others. It’s how we hope to be perceived and treated and maybe even the influence we might have on others. It’s outward and intentional.
The trouble, of course, is that the stories don’t always align, but that shouldn’t stop us from continuing to tell them.
Stay Positive & Keep Story Time Going
