Description

What separates successful entrepreneurs from the rest? It’s not just having answers—it’s asking the right questions. Dan Sullivan reveals how Strategic Coach® was built on curiosity, resilience, and a relentless focus on the future. Discover why questions drive growth, how to avoid stagnation, and why your next decade could be your most ambitious yet.

 

Show Notes:

 

Most people aren’t very good at asking themselves questions—but questions are exponentially more powerful than answers.

 

Strategic Coach provides value, not by giving answers, but by asking the kinds of questions that transform people’s thoughts and experiences into strategies for growth.

 

You can only be truly useful to someone if you know what they’re trying to achieve.

 

In sales and in entrepreneurship, maybes are the enemy. Yeses move you forward, no’s teach you, but maybes drain your energy and resources.

 

The external approval you seek early in life shapes your identity, but lasting fulfillment comes from measuring your own growth and value.

 

Resilience isn’t about avoiding setbacks, but about bouncing back stronger.

 

Teamwork and collaboration are the ultimate multipliers. Your ambition can keep expanding at every stage of life when you build with others.
