The Story is at the Center of Thinking

from How to Write Good · host Daniel Poppie

I used to think that logic was at the center of our thinking. This does not seem to be the case when you look at people, because people often do things illogically. But as I looked at people and saw them respond to events, it seemed to be the case that though they did not move through the world with perfect logic, they moved through it in a way with some sort of reason. They did not just respond to the world. They try to make sense of their world as well. So, they had some soft of fuzzy and often flawed logic that they used to make sense of the world. I do not think this is the case anymore. I think that people have a logic to their thinking, but I think at the bottom of their thinking are stories instead of logic.
