Seasoned entrepreneurs are his sweet spot. Dan is the “prepare for success” business coach and is passionate about helping business owners get laser-focused and targeted so that they achieve their goals faster and easier.

Dan’s clients enjoy more success, peacefulness, greater mental acuity, greater focus and overall a huge uptake in productivity, success, and income.

Dan LeFave, co-author of the ‘award-wining’ Stepping Stones to Success with gurus Deepak Chopra, Jack Canfield and Dr. Denis Waitely. I got my start in business over 18 years ago and when I met Bob Proctor 4 years ago, he showed me how successful you can be just by thinking accurately. I can still remember locking myself in my room weeks at a time studying and learning how to take control of my mindset. After months of studying and practicing, I cracked the code and discovered the way to eliminate negative thinking and cultivate rich thoughts. The impact was huge! Since then some of my students and clients, mostly seasoned entrepreneurs, thought leaders and success seekers (that have a built-in desire to read, study and learn) have tripled their income, removed barriers to success and living a fuller and happier lifestyle. I have been very fortunate to have worked with and become friends with experts such as Noah St. John, Bob Proctor, Lisa Sasevich, Reid Tracy and Loral Langemeier.
