What’s it about?
Where there’s smoke, there’s fire.
It’s likely you will have heard some variation of this expression over the years. In fact, this simple phrase has appeared in over 55 different languages. But what is it that makes a saying like this stick?
Certain wisdoms that we are told stick with us for most of our lives, while others do well if they stay in our minds for more than five minutes. This can be frustrating for those who are doing the telling; for teachers, managers, writers, and journalists, all trying to get their point across. We have something important to say, but it’s often difficult to make it memorable.
So how do we get our ideas to stick? Is there a special formula? Made to Stick delves into the themes and attributes of popular stories that have stuck with the public over the years. Dan and Chip Heath have studied a variety of proverbs, urban legends, and news stories that have had cognitive sticking power in order to determine the common themes that have ensured their memorability.
Their goal is to figure out just what makes them memorable, and to teach others how to implement these common traits so that they, too, can make their own stories stick in the minds
