What do you want your story to look like? What if you could learn to use the tools of story to create the life that you want? I’ve been obsessed with understanding and studying how people change their lives. I like to believe that we all want our story to reflect the type of life that we want to live. I feel that by being the active protagonist in our own story\, we can create change by aligning the actions that we take with the outcome that we desire. I am going to share four actions that I took that led me toward personal change and changed my story in the process.\nSince writing my book\, Change Your Story\, Change Your Life: A Path To Success\, I’ve been really conscious of the things I wrote about in my book\, how action equals outcome when it comes to changing our story. For me\, all of the change that I wrote about in my book was focused on the professional side of my life\, rather than the personal side. After hitting what I see as my “all is lost” moment\, when I lost my job of 15 years\, I was able to clearly see that to produce the type of change that I wanted\, I needed to take action. I outlined all the steps I took to turn my “all is lost” moment into the best thing that could have happened in my life. I found success again\, only\, this time\, I was a conscious author as I created and redefined my professional path. I understood from being a studio executive/story analyst for all of those years that personal actions equate to outcome. When the wrong actions are being taken\, you don’t get the outcome that you desire. So\, I aligned my actions in the business world with the outcome that I wanted. My focus was on stopping isolation and creating community through the telling of story on a global level. Everything that transpired over the last 7 years\, as I built my business\, falls under this umbrella. My focus was clear and my actions aligned with my outcome. Everything in me wants to teach people how to be the active hero in their own story so that their story can reflect the type of life that they want to live. \nI was motivated to write this blog was when I received an email from a reader. They wrote: \n“I’m reading Change Your Story\, Change Your Life\, and it’s as if you wrote this book just for me.  I have often wished I could be a character in one of my stories so I could just rewrite my life and reading your book makes me think that I really am.  Only that story is my life. \nI’m at one of my ‘all is lost’ moments\, so it’s hard for me to see very far down my road\, and I’m hoping your experience will help me map out a course of action that will let me breathe again.” \nI loved the truth in this person’s message. They wanted to know how to create change after going through an “all is lost” moment. While in my book\, I go into actions that I took to change my professional story\, what I teach also applies to your personal story. Here are some actions that I’ve taken to change my personal story. \nThese are four actions that I recommend taking to change your story: take a wellness vacation\, create a healthy eating system\, create a workout routine\, and connect through internal desire. These actions can foster change on a physical\, spiritual\, mental\, and emotional level. \n\nTake a wellness vacation – I went to Rancho La Puerta.\nCreate a healthy eating system – I did Paleo Delivers and Isagenix.\nCreate a workout routine that garners results – I started doing 10\,000 steps a day.\nConnect through your internal desire – I fell in love.\n\nTake a wellness vacation. I would say that one of the biggest actions that I took this year that created change was going to Rancho La Puerta. This is a place that focuses on the idea of “renewing your mind\, body and spirit on a journey to true wellness.” This choice\, this action\, is what led me to a greater consciousness of understanding change from within. This is everything that my brand for my business is about. It is also something that blends into my life. The development of story comes down to the development of self. So\, by participating in the activities\, exercise classes\, nutrition and health classes\, hikes and meditations\, at Rancho La Puerta\, I was able to bring it home with me and learn to take stronger actions that led me to greater outcomes. What I learned was that taking a vacation that allowed me to purely focus on wellness was one action that could bring about very positive results. \nWellness Options at all budget levels – Esalen\, Miraval\, Canyon Ranch\, Willow Day Spa\, Argyle Salon and Spa. \nCreate an eating system. Another action that I took that brought about healthy change was I tried different eating plans so that I could pinpoint a system that worked for me. I did Paleo Delivers. I actually did this before I went to Rancho La Puerta. This was an action because it allowed me to really understand food\, portion size and healthy choices when it comes to my daily eating habits. The food was outstanding. It opened up my time wise because I didn’t have to worry about cooking\, shopping\, and figuring out calories and nutrition. I did this for a few months just to see how it made me feel and to learn. It definitely took me a step in the right direction. When I got home from Rancho La Puerta\, I started doing a system called Isagenix. I learned about this from Sherry Catlin\, who created the Body Bar. I met her when I was at Rancho La Puerta. What I learned with Isagenix was that I had a system in play that worked for my life and supported my desire to be in the best physical shape possible. I needed a system like this. I found that the products tasted so good and the outcome took me in an even stronger direction. \nEating Systems for all budgets – Veestro (vegetarian)\, buy a Paleo book by Danielle Walker and prepare food at home\, Zen Foods Diet delivery\, Healthy Chef Creations \nCreate a workout routine. I learned at Rancho La Puerta that movement is the key to staying young. One action that I took when I returned was that I got a Fit Bit and an Up By Jawbone. This way\, I was able to track the steps that I took everyday. I set a goal for 10\,000\, and I was able achieve this. This simple change in action has changed my life in a monumental way. It helped me reevaluated my exercise routine. I began driving less and walking more. I figured that in NYC\, they walk. Why not walk in LA? By walking instead of driving mixed with my exercise routine\, I am able to attain my goal on a daily basis. I also started a combination of spinning and yoga. I spin at Soul Cycle. This has added a whole new level of physical activity to my life. My favorite instructors at Soul Cycle in West Hollywood are David\, Angela\, and Rourke. Their words motivate me from spirit. They make me want to do the physical work even more. With yoga\, my favorite instructors are Jake Ferree at Equinox and Aura Yoga and Matthew Reyes at Yoga Hop in Santa Monica. The last action that I took with my physical regime was that I have a personal trainer\, Yancy Berry\, at Equinox. I found that this helps me to keep a physical routine in place with weights. By taking these actions\, I’ve been able to better align with the physical outcome that I desire. \nWorkouts for all budget levels – Walk\, do the stairs at Montana and Ocean in Santa Monica\, do weights at home and get some Body Bar DVDs \nConnect through internal desire. I fell in love. One action that I took to attract the kind of love I was seeking was that I started focusing on what I wanted internally with a relationship versus just externally. I wanted spirit\, intellect and joy. By understanding my internal desire\, it helped to attract the type of relationship that I knew I wanted to experience. I like to believe that the universe hears us and brings us what we need when we’re ready. I met Chris when I was speaking at The Big Island Film Festival in Hawaii. I knew him for two years before we started dating. One of the things that I love about our love story is that had I not lost my job\, I would never have created a business that led me to speak at The Big Island Film Festival\, and I would not have met the love of my life. \nIn closing\, there are so many actions that we can take to illicit change in our lives. Many of these actions involve little to no money and just doing the emotional work from within. I share my personal stories with you in hopes that they can inspire you to create the change you want in your own life. The key to changing your story is aligning your actions with the outcome you desire. \n  \n  URL:https://www.jengrisanti.com/event/4-actions-that-you-can-take-to-create-change-in-the-new-year/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20141205T000000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20141205T000000 DTSTAMP:20260404T094533 CREATED:20211005T141711Z LAST-MODIFIED:20211005T141711Z UID:4755-1417737600-1417737600@www.jengrisanti.com SUMMARY:FRIDAY NIGHT DRINKS – DECEMBER 5\, 2014 DESCRIPTION:Friday Night Social ~ December 5\, 2014\nJanuary 3\, 2014 \n\n \nEvent Date: Friday\, December 5\, 2014 || Starts at 6:30 pm || Co-sponsoring with Jennifer Grisanti \nFriday Night Social is a networking group that meets the first Friday of every month.

In 5-weeks\, I will teach you how to learn to write at a level that will help lead your script to a sale\, get staffed on a show\, place in a writing competition or get into one of the various writing programs. This course is everything that I teach in Writers on the Verge and more. \n  \nLast year we had over 100 writer participants from all over the world. You will not only learn all of the story tools that you need to succeed\, you will gain the opportunity to be in a private community of writers. This community is a very valuable resource. You all will have the opportunity to learn from one another via networking\, exchanging scripts and possibly starting your own writer groups. \n  \nI’ve seen the success from this course first-hand. Many of the writers who have taken this 5-week course have gone on to sell pilots\, get staffed on TV shows and get into several of the prestigious writing programs. 28 of my writers have sold pilots… and 4 of them have gone to series. \n  \nThe class takes place on Tuesday nights at 7:00 p.m. PST.

You will also get to share your notes with those writers directly. This is what we do in Writers on the Verge. It is a way to prepare you for being in the Writers’ Room. Then\, five people that sign up each week will get an opportunity to pitch to a guest speaker. We all learn from hearing others pitch. This part of the program was designed to help you learn from the pitching style of others as well as give you the opportunity to pitch yourself. It’s an invaluable tool.

This entire event is yours as much as it is ours\, so please share your experiences with us and help to make it the best it can be. If there is a particular company you want to pitch to\, let us know and we’ll invite them to attend. If there are classes you would like to take\, we’ll add them to our lineup.  Tell us your thoughts and email us at info@pitchest.com. \n\n\n\n\n  URL:https://www.jengrisanti.com/event/scriptfest-2015-may-29-may-31-2015-i-will-be-teaching-a-class-on-saturday-and-doing-private-consults/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20150606T000000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20150606T000000 DTSTAMP:20260404T094533 CREATED:20211005T141641Z LAST-MODIFIED:20211005T141641Z UID:4747-1433548800-1433548800@www.jengrisanti.com SUMMARY:FRIDAY NIGHT SOCIAL/DRINKS JUNE 5\, 2015 DESCRIPTION:Friday Night Social ~ June 5\, 2015\nMay 2\, 2015 \n\n \n  \nEvent Date: Friday\, June 5\, 2015  || Starts at 6:30 pm  || Co-sponsoring with Jennifer Grisanti \nFriday Night Social is a networking group that meets the first Friday of every month.
