Daniel Bruce Levin tested in the genius level in first grade which makes him an intellectually gifted adult. His biography reads like he lived five lives instead of only one. Here is a short bio of what he did so far:

He walked away from an opportunity to run a billion dollar business, to hitchhike around the world to find happiness and inner peace. He studied in a seminary five years and left one day before becoming a Rabbi and he has lived as a Monk in a monastery for 10 years. As Director of Business Development, he grew Hay House from $3,000,000 a year in sales to $100,000,000 a year in revenue.

He is rare blend of businessman and mystic who sees what others do not see. It has been this one quality more than any other that has thrown him into some of the most exclusive boardrooms to help companies innovate new ways of finding solutions when the old ways stop working.

He is the author of The Mosaic, a life changing fable that invites people to listen to those others do not hear and to see the situations in their life differently. 

We talked about his experience in school and how his giftedness has had an influence on his life and the decisions he made and how he sees the world from different angles.

Through out his life he strived for simplicity, a way to describe the complex world in more simple ways. “Simple” is not to be mistaken with “easy” but in a more condensed and pure form with the messy information in a neat format.

TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE:

• If you really want something, you can do it. But you need to grow first as a person.
• There are different sides to how you can experience the world. Change your perspective and you see a whole new version of the world.
• Everything has a beginning, a middle and an end. Enjoy the middle part! This is where the magic lies.
• Start listening. Not just with your ears but with your mind.
• Listen not only to to what humans say, listen to what your business is telling you, listen to your body, listen nature and your whole environment.
• Simplicity is not the same as easy. Only when you say something in a simple way you have truly understood a complex subject.
• Having a brain which is different from the norm can make you feel isolated and lonely. Keep searching and connecting to people who understand you.
