Thank you @cryptoctopus for sharing your story. I always look forward to your posts because they are captivating. And they're captivating because they are genuine. So it makes a lot of sense that story telling is what creates the bond between the person and their audience. I completely agree with you, and I have participated in many marketing webinars that do highlight the importance of story telling. People love stories and want to relate to others through shared common grounds as you mentioned in your conclusion. Personally, I knew exactly what I wanted from my early twenties. I was always in the 'Self-Help' section of bookshops reading about success stories, personal development etc And thankfully, they shaped my outlook on life including how to expect only the good. I remember once requesting the floor plan of a beautiful mansion in Vancouver overlooking the ocean which was at that time around 1 million and half. Nothing wrong with that except that I am from London, was living in London and still at university)! But for me, there was nothing ridiculous about that. Why couldn't I have the life I wanted if I worked towards it? I had my own business in my mid twenties, then that become financially unsustainable. So over the last few years, what's called 'reality' took over and I had to get a 'proper' job. But I never lost sight of what I wanted, and I am still working towards it, especially now that I work for myself. For me, it's not about if, but when 💪 and that's the exciting part!
