18. Flow States and How can I support my Gifted Kid

0:00  We are live. Hey, everybody excited to be on early in the morning or late in the evening across the world with Amanda. So today we're having tea time or water time with a story Weaver. With the story we were asking about the experiences inside the program, and Amanda has been with us from the very beginning. That's why and I mean, it's been an amazing ride. And I'm proud to now caller one of my friends. And so first maybe Introduce yourself shortly Amanda, where you come and how you come came into the story Weaver? 0:47  Hi, I'm Amanda and I have an 11 year old daughter, and we came to story was over in Seattle, USA. And we came to story weavers because the idea of the collaborative and leadership and writing program was just so alluring. I couldn't just walk away, I had to find out more. And I'm really glad that I did. 1:15  So one of our main and we are glad, by the way that you did as well. So one of our core pillars, I would say or that's important to us is that kids apply the information they have in the group setting. That's why collaborative, but also that they take it into their real life. So have you noticed a skill that she transferred from the program and uses it elsewhere as well? 1:48  Yes, yes. 1:50  Good question. I noticed that in the groups, they had it set out for jobs, each child had a job within the team setting. And her job for one of the rotations was to make sure that everyone was on task and that they were hitting their their marks for the day for that meeting. And outside of that I've noticed her really being quite the taskmaster. And okay, what are we supposed to be doing right now. And I want to make sure we hit all of our marks, so I have my reward at the end, she's really become that driving force. 2:30  That's amazing. And that's exactly what the rules are for, in simply being able to experience it experience when you can work in a group setting and actually be the person responsible for that. That's so cool that she goes beyond that and uses it. And I know she's she's perfect at it as I notice it. Myself listening to the group of my, my daughter and and they continuously saying she's like the one let's stay on tack. Let's keep focused, guys. And I think that's, that's so valuable. And she does it in a way that's just amazing. So I remember in in Christmas time, one of the stories that I really love the story weavers that demonstrate the values of the story weavers is in a story where your kid lifts this value. And I know you with the cookie cutter, that's just my hint. So could you explain that story of of the cookie cutter maybe to everyone because I think that really demonstrates of what values we want to also live here. 3:48  Yeah, sure. Of course, that's one of our favorites to show. The group was working on a cookbook project together. And she was really into it and really excited about making these recipes and building out her cookies and putting it all very visually together. And she was like what can we do to this cookie that would make it like better, you would embody this ideal a little bit deeper, and she wanted to make this cookie cutter of the story weavers. And she had worked really hard a few years prior and earned herself enough money to buy a 3d printer. And so we had it's just sitting right next to the kitchen in our little dining area. And she was like, I want to make this cookie cutter. So we designed it together and with help from dad we design we printed out this cookie cutter she made some sugar cookies that were shaped like snowflakes and she pressed the story Weaver 3d prints into it and created story Weaver cookies. And they were delicious. I would I've heard that. 4:57  Story weavers is delicious. 5:00  I was so excited because this value of just doing one step more than expected, I think really drives home the message. That's why next to that, I was excited as one of the founders of story Weaver receiving such an amazing gift I find, I also got super excited from the values behind it, that we have kids and parents in our community that live this quality. So thank you so much for being part. Guys, if you have any questions for a story Weaver, for those who don't know what story Weaver is, it's a secular writing program that focuses on collaboration with other kids teaching communication tools that go way beyond being taught anywhere in the world. So they really learn this Leadership School way. So and as you can see, with an amazing community of driven parents, or gifted or entrepreneurial parents, and as I said, the children are amazing, just the same. So if you want more information, comment down below, reach out to us, and we'll be happy to answer more questions. Or if you have more questions to other story leavers, which we'll be coming alive on here as well then let me know. With that, thank you so much, Amanda, for being on and we'll talk soon. Bye, guys. Transcribed by https://otter.ai 

17. How do Story Weavers kids take the skills into everyday life

My story of the week. I am a bit more snappy this week, because of a lack of sleep. (I admit it, its clubhouse). My Strategy: Leaders use the Power of Anticipation.

Are you snapping at your kids more than you would like right now? Use the Power of ANTICIPATION.

I don't know if you were aware that stories are the most powerful and influential way of transferring information from one person to another. You've learned most of what you now know from stories all your life, and I'm sure, like everyone, you love them. This is Day 1, into a full year of how to become a masterful storyteller. 1x per week, I will share my journey. The best part: you can use it in everyday conversations… as well as serious business meetings… to have effective, ethical influence with other people… And yet: nobody will ever feel like you are putting ideas in their head or influencing them in any way…  If you ever wondered how to build up your story weaving skills. Stay tuned for the STORY Episodes.  I´ll share my story of hiking up a mountain with my sister, where perhaps you will discover how I impacted her to stop her from turning around.  

THE BEGINNING of THE YEAR of becoming a Masterful Storyteller.

How to get massively driven in less than 60 seconds.Even if you have to finish a project right now and you feel stuck.

Strategy: Being able to Chunk Goals and Targets to perfected sizes how do () size their goals so they feel in control? Here are signs that your Strategy needs improvements: Unclear “10 new clients” -> You feel as if you don't have that control  Goals require too big of a step  “how do you make that happen?” No clear priorities  → A lot of projects on the boil You can never tell someone what you are actually doing todayYou agonize over how to get started daily. → Are you optimistic for the week ahead, and flounder?That leads to Stuck in overwhelm Leading to  bright shiny object syndrome.  “everything is missing, search for a miracle - chasing distractions” instead of working on what your results for the week are. Then what happens is You become unrealistic "This has to happen by x." Where you feel the pressure and emotions drowning you, instead of thinking logically. Then the stress becomes severe. We get  impulsive, we are  chasing too many things, emotionally not handling the pressure, so one mistake can crash us down. Then we will feel one of two emotions:  Overwhelm turns to anger / we are  irritable/ taking it out on others, we have eruptions, we go berserk for small errands. Because it can feel as if we are drowning in conflicting priorities, so if people ask for one more thing we explode. Or the overwhelm turns into depression. We turn inward, feeling sadness and hopelessness, doubting our  ability, or premise what we are  doing, the niche, the whole idea, we have full-blown negative self-talk.  So for this week: Reflect on if you have the right strategy on measuring your outcome, results. If not, we will discuss several strategies on how to do that in the coming days. IMPORTANT: If you are not where you want to be: Change the strategy. That's it. --> Once you make a specific plan your unconscious will be modified.  Comment down below if this resonates, with what part.
