"Cool Story Bro" will explore 2 meanings of the notion of storytelling.
1. Cool story, bro is the perfect, sarcastic response to tell someone that their story wasn't, in fact, cool. I use this phrase as an internal dialogue whenever I find myself telling a non-productive, non-constructive, and frankly, untrue story in my head. Those stories that are not helpful in getting you any closer to achieving what you want. What do i mean by stories?
2. Story: a retelling of something that has occurred, often told with feeling. Stories are NOT FACTS. But we treat them that way. But Why?
Have you ever watched a conversation go down, saw or heard the reaction on the other side of the table, and assigned that person an undesirable motive? ...Leading you down a spiral. So much so that this person appears in your head like a big green slimy creature of the lagoon. So ill-intended. So malicious. Wow, how's that for a downward spiral.
We gotta stop that. Let's talk about how.
