Storytelling

Challenge

Right now, a challenge I am facing is my studies, particularly this term, because my

requirements can be overwhelming. It causes me stress and anxiety, I always question if I can do  all that I need to do to pass a subject. This leads me to bottle up all of my stress and anxiety causing  me not to function well.

Selection

Usually the tool I use for my challenge is Storytelling, storytelling is when a designer

tells a story to build empathy and persona this will give insights on an individual or particular  group on how they react to situations or prompts. I use storytelling because, instead of bottling  up my feelings and emotions, I think it is better to let it all out and it usually makes me feel better  and gives me more clarity on things.

Application

In my situation I used storytelling by me telling people around I how perceive the things

that are happening around me and what is causing me to feel that way. It usually turns in a full  communication, the person that I am talking to gives their insights, relation to the story and  journey on what they also experience when facing such situations.

Insight

The usual insight I get is that I am not alone on my experiences and face your challenges.

Storytelling helps me to be more empathic to others and myself. On the design thinking sense,  storytelling really helps reveal a person experiences and thoughts on a deeper level, this will give  many insights if look upon on different angles and understanding.

Approach

For now storytelling is what I use on a personal level. I see it as the most practical way in

my particular challenge, because I know what I am feeling about the situation I am in. What I  like about it is the person I am talking to can give feedback and insights in relation to the  situation, this can be helpful. I can use it on others for them to open up, be it on their own stories  or academically.
