It’s Not About You…. Then Who Is It About — Tell Your Story
The world needs to know who you are so you can help others
Scott Proposki, my story — I have lived in the suburbs of Boston, MA, USA, for the past 53 years; before that, I wasn’t alive!
My career started as a photographer for the local newspaper, and I went to the local school for picture day, and I quickly moved up to FOX Network in NYC.
One holiday season, during the FOX holiday party, I had photos taken on-site and printed them in a minute; it was the launch of my business, Photos In A Minute.
At the same time, another photographer was covering the event; he was from the Wall Street Journal.
He snapped a few photos of me in action, printing photos in minutes, which in 2001 was unique; the next day, it was on page two of the Wall Street Journal.
Soon after, National Geographic picked me up, then Time Inc. Sports illustrator, ABC, and FOX Network. I stayed with HBO for several years till I found local events near my home in Boston, and quickly, I was with the Boston Celtics and The New England Patriots; then, one day, The White House called me during President Obama’s Administration.
In 2019 I wrote A book about adventures and the lessons I learned entitled Camera Focus.
In 2021 I wrote another book called Bee Focused which landed on the Amazon Bestsellers list for a hot minute! (It’s a great book, the metaphor of honey bees and Corporate America)
Today, I’m a business coach under my name Scott Proposki, I had some help along the way with a few friends Donald Miller, who wrote A Story Brand, and Dr. Benjamin Hardy, Who wrote Your Future Self, and his new release entitled 10x is easier than 2x.
Dr. Benjamin Hardy held up my book Camera Focus, and we snapped a selfie together! He had been such an invaluable friend and source of motivation on this journey, so it truly meant the world to me that his enthusiasm for me publishing my first book could be seen in our photo.
