What We Learned

1. Stories can be used to teach anything.

People can use stories to communicate truth, humor, life lessons, warnings, etc.

2. Become a good storyteller.

Work on crafting your storytelling skills. Work on eye contact, voice inflection, tone, volume, etc. Choose to write out and read aloud your story. It might mean that you watch or listen to yourself to stories.

3. Story makes us who we are.

The stories we're told and the stories we believe deeply impact us. They teach us truths that can shape our lives.
