    #12 Dan Silvestre: Zero To Done

    After naturally gravitating to the subject of productivity and optimising, Dan studied the greats and learned a lot along the way. He’s been writing on subjects based around personal development, productivity, developing habits for several years now and has generated useful and inspiration resources to help you be a better version of yourself. Whether you’re reading one of his articles or taking part in his online courses, you’ll be sure to find useful information that will last a lifetime. Dan and I geeked out on productivity and shared our own experiences with systems and optimization. We talked about our love for excel, the importance of dropping habits as well as not always needing to have a system in the first place.

If you listen long enough there's always an opportunity to learn something new. This is why I created the lifelong learning podcast, to invite people that inspire me and listen to their story. Hopefully, learning something along the way. Today, I got the opportunity to sit down with Prakhar from DesignEpicLife.com and talk to him about his journey so far. Prakhar is a certified life coach and is helping his readers design and live an epic life. After going through a stressful time during his teenage years, he decided that enough is enough and to simply follow his bliss. Ever since then he has been living a deliberate life that is full of joy and happiness, and you can tell it if from listening to his voice. Although Prakhar is young, he's full of wisdom and knows what he's talking about when it comes to self-development and self-mastery.
