when you're sharing writing about yourself, don't forget who you were before. my name is christin: i'm a neuroscience phd, interfaith chaplain, and i've helped 100s of students with their writing through the write of passage program.

we want to know how a person went from the "before state" to the "after state" because we want to understand the trials and tribulations that the person went through in order to share this information. 

it's like watching america's got talent. contestants get to share their personal stories of how they were before, the adversity they've overcome. and that maximizes the impact of them getting the golden buzzer.

so when you're writing an essay, don't just jump to sharing the information, be willing to share how you were "before." it's what we really want to know and connect with.

there's a tendency for many of us, myself included, to skip the before state. we want to tell the story of how we are now. we want to share that, ta-da, i figured it out and here's the info. this short-circuits the appeal of an essay, which is a hero's journey in disguise anyway.
