The Quest for True Self
This module is meant to aid you in a quest for your own authenticity, your own genuineness, and perhaps lead you to a clearer view of who you really are – inside. Some say there is no true self, while others declare you have many selves, depending upon your life path. We will go through how the quest for the true self applies each of the 7 True Storytelling principles. And there is a special tool for the quest for the true self, developed with each principle.
Please write your answers to the following questions in a journal as you go through this module. These are deep challenging questions; you may not have answers at this point; that is OK. Each of the questions provides a piece of the answer. Put the pieces together to find your answer. We believe each person will benefit by discovering the individual uniqueness of their true self.
1. Is my occupation my true self?
2. Is my role in the family my true self?
3. Is my true self demonstrated by my resume accomplishments?
4. Do I show my true self by my possessions? House, car, etc.
5. Is my true self based on the opinions of me by others? Or my awards?
6. Have I found a truer self in life, rather than when I was in high school?
7. Can I define my “true” self?
Our goal is for you to understand how you can use a True Storytelling® methodology to improve your professional life, personal life, and your relationships. This session is about your quest to find your “true self.”
