Alright. You've got a growing list of stories your family commonly tells. Over the holidays you probably even heard some of them told again. Today we want you to scroll through that list and rate them by order of importance. How will you know which is the most important to your family? Simply identify the story that is told most often. This may not be a story of deep significance. On the surface, it may not even seem to have much universal merit at all. But for some reason, your family loves to tell that story. Consequently, it's important to you and yours. Get the idea? In essence, your oft-told family stories are having a popularity contest and you are the judge. List them in the order they are most frequently shared. Be sure to ask others in your family if your rating is correct. Once the order is set - come back to us - you'll be ready for the next step.
