Stories are as old as humanity itself, and no stories are more important than the ones we tell about ourselves. You hold in your hands proof that you are ready to tell a new story about areal that you're willing to take risks and achieve your goals, whatever it takes. You may not realize it yet, but you are capable of great acts of courage, kindness, and strength ahead. As you embark on your quest, this journal will be your companion, keeping you focused on your goals, guiding you through obstacles, and helping you become the hero of your story. Don't feel like a hero yet? Fear not—neither did any other great hero at the beginning, of their story. You're not alone. The next few pages will help you prepare for your journey. Once you receive the call, you will consider the cost of inaction, find your North Star, define your quest, and finally accept your adventure. Welcome to the Land of Istoria! — Nick and Kyle” ar a once upon a time... In the Land of Istoria, upon the humblest of hills, there lived Yew.

This is your invitation to do something outside of your comfort zone and make the most out of life. however you came into possession of this journal, you have chosen to open up to this page, to read this sentence, and to be called to your adventure. Just as the hero must leave their ordinary world, you must part ways with what you may know or what makes you comfortable. Many people leave their call to adventure unanswered, but this is your opportunity to answer—a moment when a secret Yew is revealed to have a greater purpose, an uncommon opportunity, or even a destiny long, hidden. Consider for a moment what called Yew to adventure:Refusal of the Call “The cave you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek.” - Joseph Campbell Once the heart—thumping excitement of receiving your call to adventure wears off, the shadows of self-doubt, fear, and skepticism often follow. After all, how many journals end up being abandoned to collect dust on the shelf? What makes this one any different? Every hero has felt this shadow encroach anytime they are called out of their comfort zone. The shadows whisper things like ‘you are not talented enough,” ‘they will all laugh at you,” or “you will fail.” But there is something much, much worse than failing: to never attempt your quest at all. Ask yourself, What is the cost of not accepting your quest? Before you set out on your quest, consider these questions: What will your life look like in 3 months if you refuse the call? Tf you accepted this quest, what progress could be made in 3-months time? What is the worst possible thing that could happen if you accepted your call? StS 9 dA Take time to really think these through before you answer them— 7 Us yy either J \ XN % e it’s crucial you understand the risk you are undertaking b accepting or rejecting the call. ey AC j Ve A \QFinding your North Star high above, in the Istoria night sky, countless stars glisten and oe But these stars are more than beautiful—they are also used for navigation. Your North Star is a wholly special star. It is a representation of something unique to Yew—the thing that fills your mind with wanderlust, pulls at your heartstrings, and guides you toward the most honest and freeing expression ol voursell This is your guiding light, pointing you in the right direction when you lose your way, feel burt out, or need inspiration on your journey. While your Quest at any given time is what you are trying to accomplish, your North Star is why you want to accomplish it. To begin secking your North Star you have but to examine the stories of your life. Some may recognize stories that point to the star immediately, while others may only find stories that point to the smallest glimmer in the distance. That’s ok, what's always true is that the North Star has been there to light your way and it always will be. If ever you're unsure of where your North Star shines, you can use this phrase to realign yourself: I want a better story about: Whether you could identify your North Star immediately or not, don't fear; there are no mistakes to be made here. Your North Star is yours and yours alone. Te may point to a wide range of quests, including health, career, finances, creativity, relationships, or anything else that ceads out for you. are some questions that can help you bring your North Star a bit more into focus: @ What's something I've wanted to do for a long time? © What's a part of myself Im ashamed of? @ What's something I'm afraid of trying? e What bothers me most about my current life? © What's a habit I've always wanted to build? Take some time to reflect on these or any question that speaks to you. Trust your inner voice to point you in the direction of your North Star. Oh, and one last critical note—remember that your North Star may shift or even disappear and reappear at times on your journey. This is ok, and you will be completely fine. The North Star is there to lead you when you go most astray, to guide you to what you want most, and that may change along the way. The most important part you will play is to keep moving forward, no matter what.Defining Your Quest Wich your call to adventure at your doorstep, an awareness of any fears that may cause inaction, and your North Star in sight, the quest is ready to begin. A Quest is a goal you are able to make meaningful progress on in the near future. This can be specific or vague, as long as it is important to you. Today your quest may feel large and unwieldy, too small or too simple, or anywhere in between. It is no matter what it looks like now, be~ cause this is something you will write daily, and it will likely change. The most important thing is to begin. Accepting the Quest L , am the only hero who can complete this quest. On this Day, _/ _/__, my quest has called me out of my comfort zone to pursue feats of legend worthy of the mightiest of heroes. I acknowledge my time, focus, and self are worthy of this quest. I now follow my North Star and take ownership of all outcomes. I commit to being a true hero. I will not make excuses or blame others no matter what may befall me. My destiny is my own. I will embrace progress over perfectionism, make failure a friend, and fall in love with the journey, not the destination. No matter how difficult my quest looks or feels, I will not succumb to the shadow’s pull. Given if I am exhausted or if I have a hard day, even if I wander off the path or fall off the horse , even if it takes me longer than expected — I will see this quest fulfilled. Lam the hero of this story. I chose this quest, just as much as this quest chose me. I will see it through.
