Hey Reader,
One book that truly stirred my dreams and gave me the courage to pursue them is Donald Miller’s A Million Miles in a Thousand Years: How I Learned to Live a Better Story.
How powerful storytelling can be in shaping our lives and defining who we become! This enchanting memoir took me on a journey of self-discovery and personal transformation.
Inspired by this book, I pulled myself out of a funk and decided to live a better story. Not with grand, lofty goals, but with those small choices we're not sure will make a big difference. One of those steps was led to starting life and leadership coaching training -- a life changing decision for me!
Don’s realization of the transformative power of storytelling begins when filmmakers approach him about turning his bestseller Blue Like Jazz into a movie.
As he adapts his life into a screenplay, he’s hit with a stark truth: his life, as it stands, isn’t exactly blockbuster material. This realization pushes him to explore how to live a better story, embracing the core elements of a compelling story—conflict, character growth, and a meaningful quest.
Question of the day:
What's one choice you made that, looking back now, started a new adventure for you?
