ADVICE

Why Study Story?

✨Key takeaways:

  • Stories equip us for living by expanding our understanding of the human experience.
  • Challenge yourself with increasingly complex stories to enrich your understanding.
  • Explore the vast "museum" of stories, from ancient works to modern classics.

Stories help us understand the spectrum of human experience, from the absurd to the tragic. They offer insights into different worlds and motivations, equipping us for a more successful life. Challenge yourself by engaging with increasingly complex stories. Explore the vast library of stories across time, from ancient epics like The Odyssey and The Iliad to classics by Mark Twain and Tolstoy. These works remain relevant and offer valuable insights. But be prepared to learn to read in their language.
