The Dan Sullivan Question Hardcover – June 1, 2009

It's an easy read with a powerful question backed by integrity and honesty.

When it comes to identifying goals, most people revert to goals set by society. Problem is, those aren't real for most people and they rarely mean much. If you're going to make the most of your life, you need to know what direction you wish to go. The Dan Sullivan question is the one question that will get you or anyone you are helping to focus on real life goals. I have used it with a few clients and they quickly focus on real life goals rather than goals created by society. The book is an easy read and the results speak for themselves.

The Dan Sullivan Question is about simplification of life's complexities and clarifying the things that perplex us all.For over 30 years I have worked with clients as a coach, a counselor and a psychotherapist. The Dan Sullivan Question reduces everything I have ever worked with and distills it down to just two questions that are profound in their simplicity and their efficacy.if you are looking to make serious changes in how you view the challenges that beset you, then I would strongly recommend that you read and act upon the wisdom in this book.

Good book!

The book is short, and if you remove the excessive repetition, it would be less than a ten page article. From that perspective the book is worth one star, or 99 cents. I couldn't believe I paid $9.95 for it (I bought the Kindle version; the printed book is even more expensive for such a brief content).However, the Dan Sullivan Question explained in the book is a gem for personal and professional development. From that perspective it is worth $999 or more.It's a mixed feeling. So don't treat it as a book, or you will be very disappointed. Treat is as a business advice, and you will find it to be one of the best advice you've ever needed and regard the excessive repetition as reinforcement to get the advice sunk in to your brain.The irony is, I have to read this excessively repetitive book a few more time because the advice is so valuable and I want to master it.

I've been a fan of Dan Sullivan for years. This book is one of the most useful tools you will find. If you are in any form of a customer service profession, this book will teach you how to succeed by putting your clients needs clearly in focus. It has helped me gain many new clients by getting to the root of what they really want from a professional relationship with me as their financial planner. It sets the stage for a long term relationship by helping me do a better job for them, and that is the key to mutual success.

Wow - wished I would have know the question before - life would have been a lot easier, I wouldn't have lost so much money in different businesses and bad partners. This is a game changer - we build it into our marketing consulting strategies. Very powerful!We call it the 'Million Dollar Question' because if you ask it, you will get there if you don't, you either won't get there or like me, get there and then losing it again. Good news is that I am building my next multi million dollar business right now!

I purchased the Kindle version of this book today after it was recommended by Frank Kern, and read it in one sitting.All I can say is I wish I had read the bloody thing years ago. Dan's special question and D.O.S. system are extremely simple concepts, yet they are profound in their ability to elicit exactly how we can help clients get exactly what they want.You will look like a freaken genius to your clients when you start using this method. I can't wait to start using this formula.Every business owner should read this book. Everybody who sells anything to anybody can use the principles Dan reveals. Despite being a short read, this truly is one of the best books I have ever experienced, and I read a LOT.Get this book, read it, and use what it teaches! Completely awesome!
