Knowing where you're going, is half the journey of getting there.
AIM: Utilize words and storytelling in order to illustrate the importance of vision when crafting a story, or career.
Situation: Many great musicians were asked to change their lyrics, while playing the Ed Sullivan show. Most did, some did not. When asked why, it's just a word, Jim responded, "What's your name? Mind if I just call you Asshole instead?
Challenge: (20 mins) Our words are powerful, and when combined in unison, can tell a story that transports audiences and moves emotion.
Game: (3 x 5 mins) ● Based on the slide image shown, the first person will begin our story with a word.
The person to their left will follow with the next word, and so on until we finish the story back with the first person.
