A speaker invites you to notice your phone habits and question the personal story you've accepted as true. He recommends Daniel Quinn's Ishmael as a way to understand the narratives that shape us, and describes his work helping corporate groups clarify their values and rewrite their own stories.
Good morning, everyone. Here is your moment of yes for today. We're going to pause the put it down movement, the put it down revolution for today, but I still encourage you to notice and be conscious of grabbing that cell phone. Thank you to Tiger for that great article on cell phone stacking at dinner. I encourage you guys to all check that out. I'm all for it. Your moment of yes for today is to notice your story. What What is the story that you have bought into, that you are believing, that is sort of running your life? I just finished the amazing book by Daniel Quinn called Ishmael. I highly recommend it to everybody to check that out. And it sort of enacts what is the human story that we've been living for the last few thousand years and what is that based on. Which reminds me of, I've been doing a lot of purpose work this week with some corporate groups and some individuals to really ask people, Again, what is sort of— what is the most important things in your life? What is your purpose? What is your mission? And that essentially helps us create our story. If we are clear about our purpose and our mission, then we make decisions and choices based on what our purpose is. And thus we kind of create our own story as a result. So have you spent time— are you spending time thinking about what your story is? What your purpose is? The kind of person you want to be, the kind of life that you want to live, instead of just getting caught into the day-to-day routine of just letting life live you. So look at your story today, look at your purpose, and if you get a chance, go check out Daniel Quinn's Ishmael. I think you guys are going to love it. Have a wonderful Yes Day, everybody. Bye.
