Challenge and Selection 

 Storytelling is a tool that I ’ve come across constantly as a writer and a student . Storytelling as the   meaning of it goes , is a method to tell a story through multiple mediums . In fact , every human being   on the planet has a story to tell . I chose this tool because it is relevant to me in the professional sphere ,   as an art that I have to master , but apart from that I chose the tool also to understand the multitude   of ways stories are told . Visualization which is also a key to storytelling , would come secondary , as   imagination is everybody ’s game . The art of storytelling comes with its own terms and conditions .   Sometimes not all stories can fit into the nuances of it thus making it tougher to learn and put forth   to the person sitting across you , who ’s listening or reading but is engrossed . 

 As a writer I believe there is always scope for improvement . You strive and work hard to achieve a   goal that you have in sights . Mastering my story to tell others through the way I write and speak was   my challenge . Communicating to someone , whether to words - written or spoken – is not an easy job .   A lot of external factors play a part on the stories apart from the internal turmoil that is usually faced .   Hence I decided to put to test what I had learnt through this course through the social environment I   could reach , digitally , which includes my friends and family . 

 Application 

 As I write , I decided to use other tools to aid my thinking when it came to delivering a story . The tools   I used were visualization and mind mapping . What came out in the end was a synergy lead by   storytelling but aided through careful decision making with the other two tools . 

 I began applying storytelling by creating a mental mind map of what I wanted to show through the   conversation with my friends and family . It might seem a little hard to grasp but bear with me . The   mind map constitutes of simple things that I wanted to keep in mind with my personality tandem with   the conversation I was having . The mind map had thing like eccentric , sass , learning and much more   written down , so as to remind myself to bring forth a part of me in the conversation , hence making it   a story , no matter whether it was digital or natural . While it may seem like a silly thing to do , a lot of   people focus on the doing of the conversation rather than the story of how to fit the information of   the conversation with the story within themselves . 

 Similarly , with visualization I practiced it with my writing , bringing in a picture of what I wrote . This   helped me bring about many adjectives that I missed out which could enhance the words and truly   bring out the colours of the story . It was n’t as easy task , but it was fairly much easier to put it to   practice with concentrated hours . I slowly got the hang of visualization and when I compared my   writing to the ones I ’d written before , the story I was telling , turned out to be much richer . In the same   way , when telling or being told a story by my friends and family , rather than stoically replying back   like a robot , I started visualizing their responses . The visualization was pretty simple , it was a   conversation that was taking place face - to - face at a café for instance , wherein messages were a story ,   an experience that a friend or a family had gone through . 

 Insight and Approach 

 The insight that drove the task was phenomenal . On my side , I saw my writing and conversations   improve , pushing forth a story that would have been stuck between words , but through storytelling ,   it came out in better flourish than before . The task of incorporating both mind mapping and   visualization helped bring in a depth to stories , its nuances and showed a dearth of improvement in   many ways . However , while I did seem to rely on visualisation and mind mapping , they were n’t two 

 crutches of support but were rather two pillars of strength that helped me tell stories in a much richer   manner . 

 My friends and family enjoyed our conversations , which we now look forward to whenever we get   free time . Prior to this it was more of a burden to carry out , but a little storytelling and design thinking   can go a long way . To wrap someone around a verse of thoughts and immerse them into an   experience , it involves careful processes of involving design thinking to carve out the problem , look   into the findings and execute the solution . While this definitely is not a one man ’s job , design thinking   and its tools are a great approach that should be propagated , something I will do in the near future . I   also plan to invest into learning more about the tools , including learning launch , as they can help   streamline the creative process .
