He started from scratch and build a multi-million dollar business that spans from Australia to Singapore to the UK and he wrote four best-selling books. Daniel was named in the top ten business advisors in the UK by Enterprise Nation. He is one of the top 25 entrepreneurs in London in the Smith and Williamson Awards. I regularly try to vary the topics here on Slo-mo is always an invitation to slow down and think about how you can reshape your life in ways that are important and successful for you. I think in a time where there is so much change and so much happening perhaps to jobs it may not be a bad idea to start learning about how we can create our own success, our own businesses in a fast-changing world.
