Sometimes we forget the power of our own stories.

My long time friend Bill Doerr over at Sell More Marketing recently reminded me of this fact.

Bill contributes monthly articles to The National Networker, the nation's number one source for networking tips and strategies.

In 1995, I told Bill a "once-in-a-life-time-story" that occurred after the screening of the 50th Anniversary atomic mission film I co-produced for The Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum.

Now, 13 years later, Bill wanted to hear another story; my "blogging story." I was intrigued so we got together over some strong coffee and Bill captured my two year web journey in two hours.

How does Bill's article kick off? With the story I told him in 1995, of course.

Thanks, Bill, for reminding us of the power of our stories. Sometimes it's just one story that someone will remember you by. The question is...which story will they remember?

I hope your article inspires lots of readers to join the conversation!

P.S. It's a small world. Bill mentions my friend, Jason Alba, of JibberJobber fame. Jason also is a contributing writer to The National Networker. One year ago, Jason recognized this site with the JibberJobber "You Get it Award" personal branding award.
