User stories are a business analysis technique for capturing requirements.
User stories can also be used to help us define our life roles and what they mean to our lives.
A user story is simply a sentence that captures a requirement. For business a user story takes the form:
As a **Stakeholder** I want to **Do something** so that **some reason**
For defining life yours the user story becomes
As a **Life Role** I need to **perform some task** because **some reason**
As an example, for a parental role, a user story could be:
As a Parent, I need to help my kids with their homework because it helps them be successful in life.
By creating the user stories, roles capture actions we take in life that lead to fulfillment.
