Secret: 1 Color Code

as storyteller

As an SGL explorer,
you are among
the best at the top. – Your clicks and your searches tell
who you are. –
You are a storyteller!

Why storytelling works?

Storytelling works because it appeals to both the rational and emotional sides of the brain. Every “likes” you give on Facebook helps build trust, credibility, and connection with your friends. At the same time, these small actions make you stand out and become more memorable. Your digital “footprints” can also ease the fear of rejection or judgment—because you’re not trying to sell yourself; you’re simply sharing your authentic self.
As a coach, I see this as a natural reflection of who we are. The key is to become aware of this phenomenon and take responsibility for the words we choose, the actions we take, and the traces we leave behind.
Remembering: Communication is about delivering your message—across all channels.
In the SGL methodology, we use the colors blue, red, yellow, and purple to represent different frequencies, channels, and languages of communication. Everything we say can be assigned to one of these colors, shaping how the recipient perceives the message.
Here is a brief overview of the colors, along with their icons and definitions:

HEAD LANGUAGE (blue)
which is rational, analytical, measurable and fact-oriented.

HEART LANGUAGE (red)
which is “person-to-person” oriented, in order to create the security required to be perceived correctly.

STOMACH LANGUAGE (yellow) which must be experienced as value-oriented and genuine, to create the emotional atmosphere required. Expressions like “gut feeling” say everything about whether the message is received or not.

BODY LANGUAGE (purple)
which is perceived in images, and conveyed through design, layout, photos and personal impressions. The “code” in any case creates a picture, which tells more than 1000 words. – Just think of food recipes, how beautiful design and a beautiful picture, say a lot before we start reading.

How SGL craft your stories

To craft your stories, you need to have a clear understanding of your words and the colors language, a target audience, and a main message. Your purpose is the reason why you are telling your story, such as to introduce yourself, to demonstrate your value, or to build a relationship.
In SGL we love to tell stories, or to paint a situations with words. A reason why storytelling works, is however not often highlighted in contemporary research, is its connection to the ancient tradition of oral history from more than 2000 years past. That means when we tell stories, we tap into this ancient practice, engaging listeners on a level that goes beyond simple information exchange. – This makes storytelling an especially valued approach for communication and bonding as it resonates with listeners on a primal purple level. The mind works on the principle of moving towards pleasure and avoiding pain.

How SGL structure your stories.

To structure your stories, you need to have a beginning, a middle, and an end. – or as the old rhetoricians from antiquity said. You must describe the past, move the present and please the future. – This means that you must start with some short blue facts that describe the situation, before you move on to painting the present with words and images in a red heart language that touches and engages your audience. Finally, you round off with something hopeful that gives a good and yellow gut feeling.
Your platform is your opportunity, your venue, or your channel to showcase your stories. – Let us therefore listen to one of the best stories I remember.

The story Teller

I remember a seminar speech better than any other. – We had given some advice in advance to prepare the evening’s table speech. Among other things, we had pointed out how a small object, such as a special stone, a piece of jewellery, a branch or a flower, could be an inspiring object for a good and engaging story.

When dinner arrived, the participant – a young man in his 30s – brought a plastic bag with him, which he placed by his chair.
When the appetiser was served and mostly eaten, he clinked his glasses. – “Dear seminar colleagues,” he said. “I have had a fantastic day, with an incredible number of impressions and emotions. – Before dinner, I took a short jog, and on the way home – in the bog down here, I took the following with me,” – He bent down and picked up the plastic bag and pulled out a large, dry lump of peat.
“In my imagination, this lump of peat became a symbol of us as a group,” he said. – “In the beginning we were a little dry and reserved towards each other, while now we are more open and colourful and exciting. It’s as if we have been given water and nourishment to bloom, just like this lump of peat can if we give it water and time and love.” –
He reached forward with a glass of water and poured the water over the lump of peat so that we could almost smell the wet earth.
“Think of the possibilities we have”, he said. “If we become each other’s gardeners!” – It became completely silent. Then everyone started clapping and laughing and smiling. – The speech became a little shy, and then he asked carefully: “I’m getting married on Saturday. Can I give this speech to the bride?” – I have rarely experienced a table speech with greater applause…
