I’m Dan Irvin…
I help leaders remove distractions so they can lead more intentional, fulfilled, and meaningful lives.
We are conditioned to feel busy and talk about how busy we are.. Feeling busy doesn’t make you valuable. You are worth more than that!
I love sharing my best practices, thoughts, ideas, and proven methods that help leaders get more of the right things done. Too often, we are focused on “being busy”. Focus on being busy on the steps that get you closer to your goals!
