“When I tell a story, I do my best to relive it, not retell it. The truth is if you want to be a great storyteller, don’t retell a story. Relive a story.“ - Dr. Ivan Misner

“A story has to have a point. If the story doesn’t have a point, it’s called a joke…. there has to be a lesson.” - Ivan Misner on the power of story

“If they don’t take action, what’s the point of the story? If you can do that with a story, you have hit on every. Single. Cylinder.” - Ivan Misner on the story formula
