When was the last time you tried something new? Trying new things can be undoubtedly terrifying. Something that’s unfamiliar makes us nervous in a way that’s hard to describe. Pusing out of your comfort zone leaves you vulnerable with all sorts of questions running riot in  your mind: ‘What the f*ck am I doing! Can I even do this? Should I be doing this? I’m going to look stupid!’ All too often, we allow fear of the unknown to stop us. In today’s show, Dan talks about why it’s essential...

We’re living in a digital era full of proclaimed gurus, ‘thought leaders’ and innovators. We are always looking for the next Steve Jobs or Gary Vaynerchuk.

Back in your ear buds today with Dan and Tega talking about why you can't do it alone. Today’s episode steers more towards the subject of trust and it’s something that’s close to both Dan and Tega. If you’ve ever had the pleasure to meet Tega in person, you’ll know he’s one of the most laid back people on the planet.

Take a look around at all people you see as successful in the world today. Guys like Steve Jobs, Bill Gates and Richard Branson. All Innovators of the world. All successful people have one thing in common and that’s knowing they can’t do it alone.

Take a look at your life right now and ask yourself two questions: Are you happy? And Are you where you want to be when it comes to both business and personal development? If your answer was a hard no to either of the above, it’s because of your own limiting beliefs. The little voice sitting on your shoulder whispering negative thoughts into your mind. Limiting beliefs are what hold 99% of people back from living the life they want. In today’s show, the Bearded One shares his take...

So many people today are riddled with fear. The fear of what ‘might’ happen if they show up to the world raw and unfiltered. You probably wouldn’t believe me if I told you that Dan used to be the same. Holding back from the world. He even used to asterix out ‘bad words’ that might offend his audience. Let’s be honest, if you follow Dan on social media (or you’re a part of his 7000 + group of entrepreneurial lunatics), you’ll know Dan simply does not give a f*ck. But not now. In today’s...

In today’s short insightful episode, the Beast gives you his take on the word ‘hustle’ and why there’s no such thing as an ‘overnight success’. Back in the late spring of 2016, Dan and his team of crazy entrepreneurs organised the aptly named ‘The Best Marketing Event Ever’. Amongst the lineup of speakers was none other than Gary Vaynerchuk who’s best known for his hustle and putting in ‘the work’ mentality. But is there another way? Is there an easier way to achieve your goals without...

Interesting episode with The Bearded Beast today. Inspired by Slacker De Luxe and friend Ben Settle, Dan shares his take on why you need to be more villain… … If you want to achieve success and all the moneyz. Things like: – Why do super-villains always make everyone play by THEIR rules and not the other way round? (It’s because of Villain Trait #1.) – Villain’s life is never perfect but Trait #2 helps him tweak his evil plans and move forward every single time. (Model this if you’re...

That’s right. The title of Dan’s favorite book is the topic of today’s show. Why? Because when everyone seems to be living the “zero f***s given” philosophy right now… Dan learned there is a subtle (and controversial) *thing* going on underneath that most people seem to be missing. For example: – Why when people say “I don’t give a fuck” it’s usually a lie. – How to become immune to negative opinions if you’re a massive people pleaser. – Discover what Dan does to people who constantly...

Or as Dan puts it, “consistency is the t**s!” And yet, you won’t often hear people talk about it for two simple reasons: It’s unsexy and it’s boring. But guess what? If you apply it the way Dan tells you to, it can give you freedom AND results. Show nuggets you can’t miss: – A “cheeky” little question that puts Dan on the spot right from the start. – What are “Themed Days” and how they bring more consistency into Dan’s life. (If you’re anti-structure and a free spirit this could work...
