My first experience with the recording that I remember was a book and recording on compact disc that I purchased from
Dan Miller, author of
48 Days to the Work You Love, and a close friend.
Back then I didn’t know Dan other than from the point of view of a teacher and motivational speaker. I followed Dan for many years through his books, podcast, and attending seminars at The Sanctuary at his house before getting to know him personally.
There’s an old saying that “you should never meet your heroes”. I understand why the saying exists, but I don’t think it applies to men like Dan Miller. The more I was around him, the more I looked up to him. He eventually became a hero, mentor, and close friend. His influence on my life affected me in all areas of my life.
A few years later I came full circle in my relationship with Dan and the influence of The Strangest Secret. I found an album copy of that original recording that so shaped Dan’s life and had it framed for him.
