Welcome to Personal Development mastery podcast, and this is another snippet of wisdom where I select my most insightful moments from previous episodes. Today's snippet comes from the speaking coach Pat Quinn, who talks about the two most important stories that we tell ourselves, keep listening to reclaim your past and rewrite your future. Let's dive right in.
Pat Quinn:Because there are two stories that you need to improve. There's two stories that you need to work on. One story is the story of your past. I think people think that the story of their past is out of their control, and it's not. You get to craft that story. You get to highlight the parts that you want to highlight. You get to ignore the parts that you want to ignore. You get to tell that story in a way that sets you up for success and and you control that you control that narrative. You control that story that you tell. And you're not just telling it to other people, you're telling it to yourself. And so in the story that you tell about your past, are you the conqueror? Are you the achiever? Are you the pivot? What you get to craft that story. And so you don't have to be the weakest character in the story. You can be if you want to be, but you don't have to be. You get to choose that story. And then the second story that I want you to work on is the story of your future. You get to tell that story. You get to tell that story of where you are going. You don't have to have it be a story of stuck. You don't have to have it be a story of mediocrity. You get to choose that story, the story of your future, and tell it to people. Remember, great stories are ordinary stories. They're short stories, and they're told. And so if you start telling people the story of your past, and then try changing that story a little bit, just change it a little bit, and give yourself some of the power back. Give yourself some of the choice back. So give yourself some of the control back. And then if you start telling people the story of your future, and it's not a story of, hey, we flatlined here and we're going to be in the same spot 10 years from now. But it's a story of growth. It's a story of impact, it's a story of happiness, it's a story of joy. You get to choose these stories and and I just think we are the stories that we tell. Our past is the story we tell about our past, and they say, you know, history is written by the victors. It's your history. Be the victor, tell the story, and it's your future. You can't achieve a future that you don't put into story because you won't even be able to see it. So to me, you know, it's two pieces of advice. I think they're different from each other. I think they both need work. But I tell you, if I were going to spend an afternoon just thinking about storytelling, the first two stories I would tackle are the stories of my past that I tell myself and I tell others, and the story of my future that I tell myself and I tell others. Changing those two stories, you're going to change your life.
