The choices we make — People often suspect they made a wrong turn early in their career or life. I think what’s important is what you’re doing today to make your life beautiful. You could be on one of 50 different “roads” and still choose to make your life miserable – or awesome.
Episode #618 June 29, 2018
Hi, this is Dan Miller – and yes you’re listening to the 48 Days Radio show – where each week we take 48 minutes to dive into real life questions about finding your passion, deciding what kind of life you want to live – and then finding or creating work that allows you to show up every day, excited to be able to do something that is meaningful, fulfilling – and profitable. This is where normal, indecision and ambiguity come to die. Welcome to the 48 Days Radio Show.
Questions:
1. How a singing resume landed Page a cool job
2. The Man I Want to Meet
3. Do you ever meet with someone for a one-time boost?
4. How can we help our 15-yr-old think creatively about careers?
Quotation:
“Two roads diverged in a wood, and I — I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.” ― Robert Frost
Call to Action – what are you doing today to make the road you’re on beautiful?
Resources:
5 Books I want my own grandkids to read by the time they’re 13 years old:
- Carnegie, Dale. How to Win Friends & Influence People. This is the classic little book on creating great relationships and building trust with others.
- Ziglar, Zig. See You at the Top. This book is full of easy to understand principles for any age. We used it as a text book for homeschooling our children.
- Hill, Napoleon. Think and Grow Rich. I’m sure you’ve heard of this one. The principles are as true today as they were in 1937. I value this book so much I have an original copy.
- Schwartz, David. The Magic of Thinking Big. Workable methods for thinking big. How to create your own “good luck.” The book that put coach Lou Holtz on the road to extraordinary success.
- Conwell, Russell. Acres of Diamonds. I love this little story about discovering that the opportunities for our greatest success are often right under our nose.

Love how you encouraged the person that said they have no friends and are stuck not knowing what they want to do as far as work or careers go. You were compassionate to that person, and I could hear the patience in your voice. Your love for everyone, and especially for those who have still to find clarity in their life’s purpose surpasses anyone I have ever met. Like the TV commercial of the “world’s most interesting man” you would fall under that category, AND one of the world’s most compassionate people as well. Keep it rocking brother Dan!
