GIFT STORE - Storytelling

Challenge

This is a tool that I use commonly, since in the church I always deal with people, and

although many of the people who come to church are because they need something or

they need motivation, it has become clear to me that listening to people, listening to

their stories and problems is a great help for both me and them, they let off steam and I

learn more from people, well in these times of pandemic in which there is a lot of

unemployment, I have several friends who have started to undertake, and some others

who They are undecided in doing it, I decided to apply what I learned in design thinking,

I especially wanted to know how much it can influence a person to tell me their story

and this motivates their entrepreneurship.    Application

I have a friend who has great creativity to do crafts, she is studying high school, I did

not mention that she would be part of this experiment or something related to the

Design Thinking course, a 16-year-old girl to whom I am giving guitar lessons, she told

me that she had an idea to help with family expenses but she did not feel safe, she did

not know if it would work and if in fact she had the necessary maturity for this, in this I

asked her about her motivations to undertake this project, she told me that mainly It is

because of the lack of money in her family due to the pandemic and the lack of

employment, that she was still studying and had school expenses, I was listening to her

for more than an hour, between one and a thousand words that she told me, in the end I

did this Question: Do you think your story could use its first business, if it was time to

start flying.    Well, as expected, I had to tell you part of my story, the part that best suits the topic,

well, I told you about the time I had to leave my city and go to another city for a new job,

without experience, without know so much about the other city or how work could be,

that at that time I had perhaps the same doubts or more than she has, but also analyze

my life, everything I had studied and how much it had cost me to pay for my studies ,

that he had asked me the same thing that I asked him, if it was time to give my story

another adventure, and that it was time to fly and start my career, and what motivated

me was my own story, I was the one of the doubts and insecurities, and that many of

these answers were in me.

He listened to me carefully and was encouraged to comment on his idea; His project is

to create and sell personalized details for any type of occasion, especially for

boyfriends, who had already been commissioned by some of his friends to do some

work so then he realized the business opportunity, after having told me this he was just

in need of a detail for birthday; and I ordered it, I realized the potential, we finished

talking and my order was pending.       Approach

Well when I went to pick up the detail, I saw that it was very elaborate, colorful and

modern, it was exactly what I had asked for, even with improvements, I wonder if

everything was fine, and I told him that better than I thought, then I He commented that

the last conversation we had helped him a lot and that he had decided to take this step

and write this project in his story, he knows that it can fail, it can be successful or it may

last a short time, but in any case it will help his personal life and professional.    The Design thinking course has helped me a lot personally, especially this section of

telling our story, day by day or in each new stage of my personal or professional life, I

know that the first motivation is in me, in my story, in what I have lived and passed to

get to where I am.
