I 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, people that I've had the privilege of interacting with in the past few years. You are my legacy. You are now the torchbearers of these principles that I borrowed from the previous great thinkers. Joanne and I have lived the life we loved for 55 years together. And we'd loved having the opportunity to inspire others to do the same. We have lived our dreams. I don't have a a bucket list of things I've not done. Anything Joanne and I wanted to do, we've done. I've loved creating new adventures, and now I'm anticipating an incredible spiritual transformation. Thank you for being who you are and for carrying a tiny flame from me to the many who you now have an opportunity to influence. My family set up a site for people to leave comments so I have the privilege of hearing the wonderful messages that you all are leaving there. You can access it here. You'll see lots of photos of my life journey on there — beautiful, beautiful memories I've been privileged to live through. And if you scroll to the bottom, you can leave your comments there. You've been so faithful, so responsive, so generous with your your questions, and even gifts and comments as well. Thank you for being open to growing, for being a powerful force and making the world a better place. I encourage you to become known for your positivity, for offering hope and encouragement to others. You heard it from me for so many years — continue to believe that we can, without a shadow of a doubt, find or create work and a life that is meaningful, purposeful, and profitable. So until we meet again, I'm your friend for eternity, Dan Miller.

Even 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?

As 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.

It’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.

Drawing inspiration from the book "The Millionaire Mind" by Thomas Stanley, Dan reveals that academic performance and IQ are not always the determining factors when it comes to achieving wealth. Instead, he highlights the importance of integrity, discipline, social skills, a supportive spouse, and hard work as the foundational stones of financial success. Additionally, Dan shares stories of famous individuals who faced rejection but went on to accomplish extraordinary things. So if you've ever felt discouraged or doubted your abilities, this episode will inspire you to embrace your uniqueness and find work that you love. https://www.48days.com/wisdom-of-the-sages-podcast/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Our potential for wealth is not shown in our bank account as much as it is in the attitude of our heart. Give generously and “wealth” of all kinds will start to move toward you.

Dew - and get ready for a power-packed episode filled with practical advice, inspiring stories, and valuable resources to help maximize your opportunities. Here are three key takeaways from the episode that I believe can have a significant impact on your career journey: Attitude = Wealth: The potential for wealth lies within the attitude of our hearts. Cultivating gratitude and adopting a positive outlook can bring not only financial success but also improved well-being, reduced stress, enhanced relationships, and greater happiness. Let's embrace positivity and express gratitude in our professional and personal lives. Find Your Unique Value: In today's challenging job market with unexpected changes, it's essential to become a person of value. Instead of getting frustrated with limited opportunities, focus on identifying your unique skills and value proposition. Explore creative endeavors, provide unique services, and see how you can make a difference in your industry. Remember, success comes from attitude, optimism, faith, and positive action. Express Gratitude and Give Generously: The power of expressing gratitude cannot be underestimated. Not only does it improve our mental health and overall well-being, but it also strengthens relationships, enhances resilience, and boosts motivation. Even during financially challenging times, let's embrace the practice of giving generously, whether it's through kind words, gestures of appreciation, or sharing resources with others.

Success 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 job and can’t fathom going back to work for another company. Or you’re just bored to death as Monette shares. Or you’re afraid your dreams are buried - and it’s too late to think about having a life you love. So, grab your cup of tea - or maybe your Mt. Dew - and get ready for a power-packed episode filled with practical advice, inspiring stories, and valuable resources to help maximize your opportunities! Questions: 1. I’m bored to death. Should I retire now at 62? 2. I was laid off a few weeks ago, which was fine because I hated the job. I can't fathom interviewing for another position or company at 54. 3. I'm not spiritually or mentally ready to retire, but I don't want to go back to the corporate world. 4. I "retired" from a job I had grown to despise on my 55th birthday, but now I feel like I may not be doing enough to support my family and reach our goals.

Or you’re afraid your dreams are buried - and it’s too late to think about having a life you love. So, grab your cup of tea - or maybe your Mt. Dew - and get ready for a power-packed episode filled with practical advice, inspiring stories, and valuable resources to help maximize your opportunities! Questions: 1. I’m bored to death. Should I retire now at 62? 2. I was laid off a few weeks ago, which was fine because I hated the job. I can't fathom interviewing for another position or company at 54. 3. I'm not spiritually or mentally ready to retire, but I don't want to go back to the corporate world. 4. I "retired" from a job I had grown to despise on my 55th birthday, but now I feel like I may not be doing enough to support my family and reach our goals.

I 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 accomplishment, or does it at some point tip the scale and begin to diminish the meaning of your life? Are you creating the legacy you want to leave for your loved ones? Reflect back on last month – yes, just this last month. What did you do to keep your life from being too small? Get the 7 questions to ask yourself to determine if you’re living life too small, plus my thoughts on these great questions and a special invitation to our upcoming 48-Day Dream Life Blueprint event on November 14th, 48 days before the new year at https://www.48days.com/living-large 1. Would coaching my son through 48 Days to the Work You Love and the application guide help him get clarity on what he wants to do? 2. How do I tell the difference between a true mastermind and a group where they’re just going to try to sell me something? 3. Do you think I could sell a book with only one sentence in it? 4. I’m a software developer but I’ve never felt that I’m very good - should I consider a new career? 5. My family and friends expect a discount at my business. How should I handle that?
