A batch of the best highlights from what Swapnil's read, .
It’s hard to be authentic and vulnerable when you’re reciting lines. It’s also obvious to an audience when a storyteller is simply reciting a story instead of telling a story.
Instead of memorizing your story word-for-word, memorize three parts to a story:
1. The first few sentences. Always start strong.
2. The last few sentences. Always end strong.
3. The scenes of your story.
Storyworthy
Matthew Dicks
Socrates, in his dialogues with the self-described wise men known as the Sophists, arrived at the following conclusion: I (Socrates) know that ‘my knowledge is not complete’. I know my own ignorance. The Sophists, on the other hand, those would-be wise men, intend to understand everything and know nothing of their own ignorance. In this respect—my knowledge of my own ignorance—I am more of a wise man than they are. This is the context of Socrates’ famous statement, ‘I know that I know nothing.’
