About Tom Gilbert, Personal HistorianAnd the Vision of Your-Life-Your-Story.comMy name is Tom Gilbert and I am a writer, personal historian and the founder and developer of Your-Life-Your-Story.com. The purpose and vision of this web site is to encourage you to preserve your life story. As I mention elsewhere your life is your story! It is important for many reasons to tell your story.If I convince you of the importance of that it will be a start. However, I hope to encourage you to take the action that records your story. The format of that story is not as important as the decision to follow through and do it. If you are wondering how to tell your story please take the time to explore the options.
A bit about my storyOver the years I've held various jobs in different businesses, but I've always maintained an interest in people's stories. I have kept journals for many years and it has proven to be instrumental in my spiritual growth.***sidenote: Be sure to check out the many reasons to keep a journal and some excellent resources to get you started.**** I record all kinds of things in my journals, but they are basically my place to put my thoughts in writing and try to gain perspective and clarity from it all. My career in the radio broadcasting industry spanned over thirty years. I have worked at many radio stations as an "on-air" personality, promotions director and program director. It was a good way to see the country (New Mexico, California, Florida and Michigan), get free CDs, see lots of concerts and meet interesting people. When
the Internet came along I started enjoying being online and it was
a natural progression to start building web sites and learning about
Internet marketing. Sharing
our stories, those of our families and other people we meet, is
a great way to learn the important lessons in life. It also helps
remind us that we really are all here for the purpose of community.
Life is pointless without participating in a loving way in the lives of
others. There are many links to suggested services throughout Your-Life-Your-Story.com. Please take the time to visit them and see if what they offer can help you. I also encourage you to sign up for my free "Your Life Is Your Story" newsletter. It's a great way to discover the many ways to get started on telling your life story or family history. Go here for more information. If
you have a service you think would be helpful for people in
preserving their life story I'd like to hear from you! Perhaps
we can work together towards the common goal of telling life stories
and passing on family history. Visit
the contact page to drop me an email or to phone me. The very best way to establish a successful web site for your business, service or interest (without spending a fortune) is to use Solo Build It! I used it to build this site. It's much more than building your site...you get automatic and effective search engine submission, powerful brainstorming software to develop the best keywords, copy and theme for your site, traffic generating ideas and software, a complete mailout module for your newsletter...and much more. Go here to find out more! There is a special Up Close look at SBI on our site - go here. Find out more with some straight talk, examples and a short video - here.
This
is ideal for anyone who has a
service they are promoting, and especially for those of you who are in
the family history/personal historian
field.
