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.

In this episode of “Wisdom of the Sages" host Dan Miller shares his love for whistling and its positive impact on his life. He explores the idea that whistling can elevate mood, spark creativity, and promote a sense of optimism. Drawing from personal experiences and cultural references, Dan discusses the therapeutic and uplifting nature of whistling and encourages listeners to embrace this simple, cost-free habit to improve their well-being. Join us as we whistle our way to a more positive and optimistic mindset.

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.  We’ve got just a couple of questions today - and a couple of short stories to emphasize the importance of gratitude. 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. 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. PLUS how I start each day. https://www.48days.com/want-to-be-wealthy-try-this

If you think you’re saving money by not eating out, you may be mistaken. This is not about the math, this is about the missed connections.
