How do you tell the story of your life? Turns out a big part of your
personality are the snapshots of experiences you assemble and re-assemble
of your past and future. Of course, that means that you can curate and
shape those things, refine them based on what works for you and how others
respond. When you stop and think about it, we have a lot more control over
the frames we choose then we think, a lot more control of how we design our
own narrative and how it works with our character. The more aware we are of
the story we want to tell with our lives, the clearer our choices for the
future can be. That means that the narrative habits we have, the
micro-stories we tell, get hardened over the years, don’t really need to be
that way.
