Get your story right and it can get you hired. While doing so, one need to be mindful of :
1. Authenticity: A story well narrated straight from your heart, is a story filled with honesty, purity, innocence, and authenticity. Even if you try to fake it, maybe once or twice, the real you cannot be hidden for a long time. Embrace the real you, and your story.
2. Precision: When you write or narrate your story, make sure it's concise, to the point, using the narrative techniques followed along with it. Enroll yourself in this course to actually know why it's important!
3. Intent & Audience: Why are you narrating your story? What's your intent behind it? To whom (your audience) are you narrating your story? Are you narrating your story for your investor pitch, networking at a party, getting an admission in your college, to get hired, or improve your date? Be clear with this and you're good to go ahead with your story.
4. Respect your Audience: Be it an individual such as an investor, HR Manager who's going to interview you, an admission counsellor, your date, or a group of people in a social gathering, who are present to listen to your story, they are dedicating their time and energy to do so. Being humble and respectful to them do no harm to you! :)
5. Flow & Structure: Every story has a start, middle, and an end to it! While watching a movie, you won't suddenly jump to watch the climax, without knowing the background of the story, and what lead to it's climax. Similarly while crafting your story, there's a flow and a structure that you need to follow to gauge your audience's attention, thereby making it a compelling and a beautiful one.
