Sometimes we need to stop for a moment and think about what we're really doing. We're telling stories.
As filmmakers, our stories are not in the first place for ourselves; they are for an audience.
Jay O'Callahan has a great story to illustrate how the listener played a role in coming up with his story. If you have 15mins, this is a video worth watching.
