The psychology behind why stories are so influential in shaping our identities and helping us grow, by carolspearson
Identifying with one or more characters in a story offers our brains a practice run for living some version of a similar story.
Children need to be able to distinguish fact from fiction. In adult life, being able to appreciate both for what they offer is basic to success. Remember to notice what possibilities tug at your insides, saying “turn here,” or, “this is your mountain to climb.”Have you ever been in a bookstore and suddenly felt a tug toward a certain book? I’ve come to trust that as everyday magic. Carl Jung called this phenomenon “synchronicity,” which means meaningful coincidences.
A few days ago, I was in my local library with a lovely, precocious, avid reader. I felt a book call to me, but assumed, since it was in a section for 9 to 14-year olds, that it was likely meant for her. Wishing not to presume, I asked her if she had read it. Without looking up, she said it was best to read the one before that in the series first, but she liked it. So, I figured the urge toward that book was for me..
You may have heard the saying, “change your thinking, change your life,” but if you want transformation, it is your stories that must be discovered and then changed. The brain makes meaning of events, experiences, and even our feelings in narrative form, so it is the meaning of our stories that motivates attitudinal and. Sometimes, though, the narratives we tell ourselves may not jibe with the observable facts.
