Termination of auto narration as a creative thinking process
Streszczenie
The article proves that the competence of creativity is connected with the narrative
competences.
It explains how the awareness of auto-narration affects the creative abilities of people aged 18–
35. It concludes that it is impossible to be creative without knowledge of oneself. Here, I present the
concept of auto narrative training that I have developed based on Christopher Vogler’s idea of the
hero’s journey, concepts of creative thinking processes, narrative psychology, and narratology. The
training is supposed to stimulate creative and narrative thinking as well as strengthen creativity. The
article focuses on small narrations, which are understood as outspoken monologues. It brings the
concept of the magical power of a story as an instrument of achieving self-awareness. I intend to
answer the question as to whether the improvement of our narrative skills stimulates our creativity.
