Would you read the story you are writing?

You are writing a story, your life story and your life story is important. The most important story you will ever have the chance to write. Have your ever thought about the story you are writing?

Would it excite you, would you be so interested you couldn’t put it down? Is it full of joy, does it have an impact, does it leave you thinking wow, that made a difference?

It is the biggest story you will ever have a chance to be a part of. Are you consciously writing it or are you thinking it is just being written and you are just playing a part?

I just finished reading “A Million Miles In A Thousand Years” Donald Miller and then a couple of days later I read this blog post by Chris Brogan. I highly recommend reading the book as a primer to thinking about just how you want your story to go.

Are you waiting for your story to get interesting? Are you thinking that someday it will? That maybe after this happens or that, it will get interesting or more enjoyable. Like when you have a better job or more money or the right partner.

Your life story gets interesting because you decide to consciously write a story that is interesting. Your life story has impact because you decide to consciously write a story that has impact. Your life story is full of joy because you decide to consciously write a story that is full of joy.

Your life is the story, you are the author. Make it one that excites you. Think about the impact you have the opportunity to make. Don’t let the story go untold. You have a chance to write a story that is full of joy. That impacts the lives of others, that is read and remembered for years to come.

Don’t wait to get started, there are no rewrites.
