Welcome message


Hey look at me...I'm a blogger! What the heck is a blog anyway? The simplest way to describe it is as my personal journal that’s not so personal because I share it with everyone in the world. This blog is called “According to Dan” and focuses on:
- helping you become a better communicator
- helping you elevate your career
- Current events and life issues that got my attention
- and my golf game - maybe you can send me some short game tips ;-]

My mission is that you to will learn, enjoy, and be challenged by my posts. You may find yourself informed, amused, or even agitated, but I hope it will improve some aspect of your life.

Do You Need Accounting?

I recently hooked up with someone to be an accountability partner and have been very pleased with the results. Doug Petch (www.dougpetch.com) and I met through the World Champion Speakers Edge program and found we had similar goals. Doug is an expert on leadership and provides a very cool service with his 60-Second Seminars. He lives in Lexington, KY and I'm out here in the Pacific Northwest. We talk each week just to make sure we are doing what we say we want to do.

In fact, this week Doug asked if I had completed a task that I said I would. Ugh! I didn't quite get it done so now I really have impetus to complete it this week.

That's the great thing about having another person keep you accountable for your goals. With technology, it even opens it up more to build relationships with people all over the world.

Find a kindred spirit in your type of business and see if you can develop an accountability partnership. If you're like me, you will find a great benefit from it.

P.S. My first Panic to Power Boot Camp was a great success. I have another one scheduled for march 18 in Seattle. I should have it ready for registration on my web site next week. If you just can't wait, contact me now and I will sign you up. I have a very special extra early bird special going. Call me and find out!
