Storytelling Templates: The Great Storytelling Formula

One Story unites us all. One One Story binds us.

There is one story formula - one Storytelling template to which every single human being responds, regardless of your race, creed or culture.

Noted mythologist Joseph Campbell discovered this formula, which he calls The Hero's Journey, based on decades of research.

I have simplified this form so that anyone can understand it and apply it to the story of YOU in business - your Core Story.

The Great Storytelling Formula

Would it be useful to have a Storytelling Template%u2122 that would help you create The Story of You - your Core Story? Sure it would! What I'm about to share is a proven, universally recognized story that will magnetize your ideal customers and contacts to you.

How do I know it's a proven formula? Because it is a simplified synthesis of the Hero's Journey, which renowned mythologist Joseph Campbell showed is a constant through all cultures, all religions, and all people of all colors throughout all time. Relate this story to your own life and business:

1. Quest: I had a problem / I was dissatisfied / I wanted more, so I started searching%u2026
2. Test: I survived trials and tribulations / took wrong roads/ searched and searched for the answer

3. YES!: At last, I found my solution / I figured it out and now I'm sharing it with you, because I cannot keep it to myself.

What do you like best?

And what do you want more of?
