After 17 years, this is my last podcast
29/12/2023 Duração: 09minI want you to hear this from me rather than through the grapevine because you are part of my legacy. I've always encouraged people, as you know, to ask, what does this make possible? Well, 3 weeks ago, I thought I was an extraordinarily healthy 76-year-old guy. I eat a clean diet. I don't smoke. I don't drink. I exercise 5 times a week. On December 7, 2023, the doctors discovered I have very advanced pancreatic cancer that had already spread into my liver and into my bones and told me the prognosis is not good at all. Well, this gives me a unique opportunity to live out the principles I have taught all these years. Think about the way that I present life and how to approach things that are unexpected and unwelcome. I tell you to "never let your circumstances determine your attitude." I'm getting an opportunity now to test that out. Did I really believe those things, or was I just giving lip service to some kind of principles that I read in a book somewhere? My legacy is firmly embedded in people like you, peo

Is your generosity helping or hurting the individual?
22/12/2023 Duração: 42minEven when offered with compassion, traditional charity, which should be only a temporary fix, can often enslave individuals—becoming a poverty trap—if extended into the long term. Instead of focusing on the potential, charity cheats them of using their God-given abilities and talents. Well, let’s talk about it - we’re right here at Christmas time and it’s a wonderful opportunity to be creative in how we can really help others. Questions: 1. Hi Dan, I’ve been listening for years and you helped me clarify and achieve my goal of selling 500 paintings in 500 days. 2. Could you remind me how the saying goes: “If you help someone once, they’re grateful. Help them twice they’re ….. Help them a third time they expect it.” 3. I started dabbling in eBay sales and would like to boost it up to be a full-time income. Is that possible?

WOS: Don’t waste your life believing you can’t
18/12/2023 Duração: 06minAs we look forward to a new year let’s talk about the incredible capabilities of the human spirit. In the Success Principles, Jack Canfield recounts the remarkable tale of Laura Schultz, a 63-year-old woman who defied her own beliefs and lifted a Buick to save her grandson. This act led her to question the limitations she had placed on herself, ultimately embarking on a new journey to study geology and teach at a community college. Joanne and I have a friend who had a similar experience. After losing her speaking voice, she discovered a hidden talent for art. Both stories serve as powerful reminders that it's never too late to pursue our passions and unearth hidden talents within ourselves. Join us as we delve into the theme of self-discovery and the limitless potential within each of us.

Are you staying just for the paycheck?
01/12/2023 Duração: 35minIt’s true that the volatility created by Covid caused nearly everyone to reevaluate their work. Many experienced remote work for the first time and decided they would make that a priority from now on. Others heard about the desperate search for workers by hundreds of companies and decided to explore what seemed like easy options to advance or even change careers only to experience shift shock. We’ve heard terms like “quiet quitting”, “resenteeism”, “bare minimum Mondays”, “act your wage” and “sheltering in place” to describe simply tolerating a job in exchange for the paycheck. If you identify with any of these terms - it’s time to move on. I’m also going to give you 5 clear indicators of how you may be feeling that are even more pressing reasons you need to take action - now. And I have two Christmas movie recommendations that build on everything we talk about here on this podcast all through the year - as guiding principles to build your true success.

Oh no - I’m an “inverse paranoid”
17/11/2023 Duração: 47minSuccess is something you attract by the way you think and the person you become. You don’t have to change the company, the economy, the government, your boss or your spouse - you get to change YOU and you’ll see your whole world change. Remember, our minds are like gardens. They give us a bigger return of whatever we planted. If you think about negative things you will see those enlarge in your life. If you expect and think about positive things, you will see more and more of those in your reality. In setting goals you are indeed creating your own future. I like to expect good things coming my way. I expect the people I meet to be eager to help me. I expect to find that parking spot just where I need it. I expect to feel great when I wake up in the morning. And yeah - I expect to make it to the gas station even if the fuel gauge is flashing empty. We’ve got some great questions today - from listeners like you who are looking for ways to be fully engaged in life at 55, 65 and more. Maybe you just lost your jo

Are you living your life too small?
10/11/2023 Duração: 45minI hear the most interesting statements from people who are describing their lives. Recently a 36-yr-old MBA in an executive position in an exciting industry shared this concern in her coaching profile: “I have a vague sense that my life is too small.” Living large does not necessarily mean a bigger salary, house, cars or retirement fund. It has nothing to do with fancy vacations or the latest fashions. Rather, it means having a life that’s full of meaning and purpose. And that can occur – or be absent – at any place on the continuum of the traditional parameters of “success.” I’ve seen millionaires who are living life “small” and those with scarce financial resources who are living “large.” Let me ask you this: What is your life saying to the world? Are you living your life too small? Is it so full of meaningless tasks that there’s no room left for the things that make your heart sing? Are you pushing so hard in doing more that you’ve lost the sense of being more? Does more activity really equal greater acco

Here’s a prediction of your life in 2024…
03/11/2023 Duração: 42minIs there a way to know what your life will look like in the future? Or do we just have to wait and see what happens? I want you to hear some stories from people who didn’t wait - they decided what they wanted their future to be and took action to make that a reality. What if you could make more money on the side - than from your primary job? I heard from an Eagle member this week who has a salary of $135,000. But this year he’ll make more from his side ministries than from that W-2 income. Do you think that’s possible for you? We’ve got some gripping stories today - from people who figured out how to move from where they were - to where they wanted to be. Questions: 1. I went from an unsure future at a dead end job to an exciting new career in 32 days from the time I picked up the book. 2. Your book is causing me to have chest pains.There should be a health warning on the front cover! 3. I gave my Dad the book 48 Days to the Work You Love by Dan Miller and roughly 48 days later he landed the most incredi

WOS: BLACK CRABS -- Do This AND DIE!
30/10/2023 Duração: 05minIn this episode of Wisdom of the Sages, we delve into a powerful lesson from the book Rich Dad Poor Dad, focusing on the importance of associating with the right people. Our story revolves around the Hawaiian Black Crabs, and their behavior provides a metaphor for the world we live and work in. These crabs, trapped in a bucket, symbolize those who are ready to ridicule and pull others down rather than supporting their pursuit of freedom and success. We explore the concept that small thinkers often find it easier to criticize than to find solutions, and how surrounding ourselves with successful individuals is a key characteristic of achievement. Join us as we reflect on this thought-provoking tale and gain insights on how to avoid the negative influences in our lives. https://www.48days.com/wisdom-of-the-sages-podcast/ Learn more about your ad choices.
