Reflection – Storytelling 

 Challenge & Selection 

 Storytelling is a great tool that I have used a lots time . I work with an organisation which involves me   dealing with the students of the age group 14 - 18 years . My role is to mentor them in choosing a   specific career path and helping them prepare for the examination & interviews . They need to be   inspired & motivated to work hard even if they fail at some point . To rise again despite setbacks . I   spend a lot of time listing to their problems and then sharing stories to overcome the same . Stories   enables me to have a better connection with them . Stories help students visualize what they want   and how to go about it in a better way . It helps me to empower kids and to motivate them to work   hard in life . 

 Application 

 I have a story about using storytelling . In one of the regular sessions with my students where we   were discussing strategies for an upcoming examination , I was guiding them about do ’s and don’ts in   the exam they needed to follow for boosting their performance . I was telling them stories of the   candidates of earlier batches who have done really well . Everyone looked confident at the end of the   session except for one kid who looked demotivated . I told him to meet me personally & had a talk   him with . Where I got to know that this was his 3rd & last attempt . He failed previously , hence lost   hopes . At the same time his family had high hopes which made him feel worse . 

 Insight & Approach 

 Well , I told him my story . A story of my failures when I was his age . Despite making continuous   efforts I failed five times straight . But never gave up . Sooner or later , hard work pays you back . And   it did in my case . What matters is your genuine effort . This worked really well . He really needed   individual attention for that brief time , and he ended up with that and a true support . He appeared   in the exam and came out with flying colours . Sometimes a little story can do a lot of good . 

 I have used this tool earlier but this course gave me deeper insights into the it . It will help me ahead   and to come up with stories that will assist me in presenting my ideas and best illuminate them .
