We Are The Stories We Tell About Ourselves

I missed the opportunity for a continuing education course at the local CC because it was full.  Disappointed.  The course taught by Ellen Waterston: "The Story You  Came to Tell".  Picking up on the theme I intended to apply it in my own way.  It is an interesting idea.  The stories we tell about ourselves, individually or collectively depending on a group association are the beliefs that we hold.

This applies the stories told about ourselves to Agile team development.  Tell the story as a guide to team objectives to implement the selected belief story in an object oriented system structure.

Likewise, I am sure that the course development would be selecting a story and then implementing it in a narrative writing project.

Applying the broad approach to writing works well in highly structured systems development.  The best books are also highly structured works of art.

Business Entity analysis in UML is nothing more than discovery of the story a business tells about itself or the story it would like to tell about itself in the case of an Agile Team project.

We are (or would like to be) The Stories We Tell About Ourselves.

I need to develop my story telling skill to tell a better story!
