Tell Your Origin Story:
Barry Lopez: The world is held together with stories and compassion.
We all have an origin story (a term from comic books). They need to understand how they got their superpowers. These superheroes had problems like humans and responded like humans. Over time it became clear that they had special gifts. Their superpower wasn’t their true superpower…superman’s strength? No. His altruism was the special part.
Focus on what your superpower is as a human being or business leader. Business: how your business became what it is. Memoir: focus on where you’ve arrived today. That’s where you’ll find your superpowers.
We start at your beginnings and how you’ve arrived where you are today.
Phil Knight, Steve Jobs, etc = humble beginnings. We want to build a story of humble beginnings and lessons along the way that give us our expertise/superpowers.
Why an origin story?
How to write your origin story:
Emphasis is on humanity and simplicity of it. You don’t always have to be serious either. Lean on some humor and some way to see that there were luck and persistence involved but you got there anyway.
