STORY
WHAT IS ONE?
“A fact is interesting,
an idea is important,
but only a story, a
good argument, a
well-crafted narrative
is amazing, never to
be forgotten.”
KEVIN KELLY
(RE)
CREATION
“Legendary totemic beings wandered
over the continent in the Dreamtime,
singing out the name of everything that
crossed their path - birds, animals, plants,
rocks, waterhold - and so singing the
world into existence.
Even today, when an Aboriginal mother
notices the first stirring of speech in her
child, she lets it handle the 'things' of that
particular country: leaves, fruit, insects
and so forth. The child at its mother's
breast, will toy with the 'thing', talk to it,
test its teeth on it, learn its name, repeat
its name.”
BRUCE CHATWIN

RESISTANCE, THE REACTION

CONVENTIONS
THE CONVENTIONS OF THE SECTOR
THE ROOT CAUSES OF THE PROBLEM
THE WORLDVIEWS THAT CREATE IT
THIS IS BECAUSE IT IS GENERALLY BELIEVED
THAT...
CONSCIOUSNESS
SHIFT
THE INSIGHTFUL REALIZATION, THE
TRANSFORMATION, THE CREATIVE LEAP,
THE NEW WAY OF THINKING
SO ACTUALLY THE REALLY CHALLENGE IS
HOW TO...

I HAVE PERCEIVED THAT REALLY THIS IS
WHAT IS HAPPENING...

THE BOON!
Storytelling for Changemakers
1. THE ORDINARY WORLD. The hero, uneasy, uncomfortable or unaware, is
introduced sympathetically so the audience can identify with the situation or
dilemma. The hero is shown against a background of environment, heredity,
and personal history. Some kind of polarity in the heroʼs life is pulling in different
directions and causing stress.
2. THE CALL TO ADVENTURE. Something shakes up the situation, either from
external pressures or from something rising up from deep within, so the hero
must face the beginnings of change.
3. REFUSAL OF THE CALL. The hero feels the fear of the unknown and tries
to turn away from the adventure, however briefly. Alternately, another character
may express the uncertainty and danger ahead.
4. MEETING WITH THE MENTOR. The hero comes across a seasoned
traveler of the worlds who gives him or her training, equipment, or advice that
will help on the journey. Or the hero reaches within to a source of courage and
wisdom.
5. CROSSING THE THRESHOLD. At the end of Act One, the hero commits to
leaving the Ordinary World and entering a new region or condition with
unfamiliar rules and values.
6. TESTS, ALLIES AND ENEMIES. The hero is tested and sorts out allegiances
in the Special World.
7. APPROACH TO THE IN-MOST CAVE. The hero and newfound allies
prepare for the major challenge in the Special world.
8. THE ORDEAL. Near the middle of the story, the hero enters a central space
in the Special World and confronts death or faces his or her greatest fear. Out
of the moment of death comes a new life.
9. THE REWARD. The hero takes possession of the treasure won by facing
death. There may be celebration, but there is also danger of losing the treasure
again.
10. THE ROAD BACK. About three-fourths of the way through the story, the
hero is driven to complete the adventure, leaving the Special World to be sure
the treasure is brought home. Often a chase scene signals the urgency and
danger of the mission.
11. THE RESURRECTION. At the climax, the hero is severely tested once
more on the threshold of home. He or she is purified by a last sacrifice, another
moment of death and rebirth, but on a higher and more complete level. By the
heroʼs action, the polarities that were in conflict at the beginning are finally
resolved.
12. RETURN WITH THE BOON. The hero returns home or continues the
journey, bearing some element of the treasure that has the power to transform
the world as the hero has been transformed.

events increases the
possibility for significant

DANIEL TAYLOR

"Those who do not have
power over the story that
dominates their lives
— the power to retell it,
rethink it, deconstruct it,
joke about it, and change
it as times change -
truly are powerless,
because they cannot think
new thoughts.”
SALMAN RUSHDIE
"Be patient toward
everything unresolved in
your heart and try to
love the questions
themselves... the point is
to live everything... live
the questions now.”

Even today, when an Aboriginal mother notices the first stirring of speech in her child, she lets it handle the 'things' of that particular country: leaves, fruit, insects and so forth.

  • 53. 1. THE ORDINARY WORLD. The hero, uneasy, uncomfortable or unaware, is introduced sympathetically so the audience can identify with the situation or dilemma. The hero is shown against a background of environment, heredity, and personal history. Some kind of polarity in the heroʼs life is pulling in different directions and causing stress. 2. THE CALL TO ADVENTURE. Something shakes up the situation, either from external pressures or from something rising up from deep within, so the hero must face the beginnings of change. 3. REFUSAL OF THE CALL. The hero feels the fear of the unknown and tries to turn away from the adventure, however briefly. Alternately, another character may express the uncertainty and danger ahead. 4. MEETING WITH THE MENTOR. The hero comes across a seasoned traveler of the worlds who gives him or her training, equipment, or advice that will help on the journey. Or the hero reaches within to a source of courage and wisdom. 5. CROSSING THE THRESHOLD. At the end of Act One, the hero commits to leaving the Ordinary World and entering a new region or condition with unfamiliar rules and values. 6. TESTS, ALLIES AND ENEMIES. The hero is tested and sorts out allegiances in the Special World.
  • 54. 7. APPROACH TO THE IN-MOST CAVE. The hero and newfound allies prepare for the major challenge in the Special world. 8. THE ORDEAL. Near the middle of the story, the hero enters a central space in the Special World and confronts death or faces his or her greatest fear. Out of the moment of death comes a new life. 9. THE REWARD. The hero takes possession of the treasure won by facing death. There may be celebration, but there is also danger of losing the treasure again. 10. THE ROAD BACK. About three-fourths of the way through the story, the hero is driven to complete the adventure, leaving the Special World to be sure the treasure is brought home. Often a chase scene signals the urgency and danger of the mission. 11. THE RESURRECTION. At the climax, the hero is severely tested once more on the threshold of home. He or she is purified by a last sacrifice, another moment of death and rebirth, but on a higher and more complete level. By the heroʼs action, the polarities that were in conflict at the beginning are finally resolved. 12. RETURN WITH THE BOON. The hero returns home or continues the journey, bearing some element of the treasure that has the power to transform the world as the hero has been transformed.

  • 95. "Be patient toward everything unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves... the point is to live everything... live the questions now.” RAINER MARIA RILKE
