Start Your Spellbinding Journey
In the beginning, there’s a man with penetrating flaws.
He is a low-life in one way or another.
Or, at least he feels like one.
He is - in some way - unhappy.
When I got to the big-big house, they immediately started me on drugs to cure me of the way I had been.
It took 4 or 5 days, but the aliens started to dissipate.
My connection with them was severed.
I searched for the signal that could never be found.
And then, slowly, I realized they had never been there at all.
We were alone.
No one was coming to save us.
I was alone.
I was deeply unhappy in a very specific way.
Somehow, by luck, one of the books I’d shoved into my backpack before having myself committed was an old one I’d picked up on writing.
It was something about how to plot your story.
That book might have saved my life.
Suddenly, I reframed everything.
I could look at it as: I’m that pathetic crazy psycho believing that I can communicate with aliens to save the world. Someone who can’t get it together enough to hold down a job because these delusions keep creeping in.
I was an anti-hero.
The deeply flawed protagonist whose journey will be made all the more cathartic because there’s so much to change.
Because there’s so much growth and realization to be had at multiple stages along the way.
Those very qualities make it more spellbinding - and they will for you, too.
This will be a long process.
We’ll go through each step one at a time, including:
Reframing how you think of yourself.
Mapping where you are now.
Designing where you want to go.
Plotting your captivating story.
Turning the plot into your action plan.
Expect that things will go sideways.
Journaling the process and all its twists.
Learning about how heroes and anti-heroes overcome tensions that the story throws at them.
Apply these ideas to your life and progress.
Identifying where one journey ends and another begins.
