Product Description Are you working hard, but continue to feel stuck? Does every day come with more responsibilities that make life feel like a task to be completed rather than enjoyed? In Day In, Day Out, Nick Dancer invites you to build a life on the timeless principles that have brought out the best in humankind since the beginning. Technology has changed our lives, but nothing has changed about the battle inside of us—we want a great business and life, but have been told we can do it differently. Too many quick fixes, tricks, and hacks have led us down a path of excitement to make long-term lasting changes, but time and time again they seem to fizzle out. Sharing stories from his experiences as a husband, dad, and business owner, Nick helps you see that skipping steps has never worked. He’ll help you find your way back to the basics and rediscover that doing the simple things day in and day out put you on the path to greatness in work and life. Review "Great insight and inspiring little bite-sized snippets of life and business wisdom. I couldn't stop reading them!" --Derek Sivers , author of Anything You Want , and founder of CD Baby, the most popular music site for independent artists "Successful firms share a common trait of bringing intentionality and caring to their team, clients, and products/services. In Day-In, Day-Out , Nicholas shares how he and his wife applied these principles both at home and in successfully scaling their business." --Verne Harnish , author of Scaling Up (Rockefeller Habits 2.0) and founder of Entrepreneurs' Organization (EO) "Day-In, Day-Out is more than just a guidebook for business owners; it's an important resource for anyone who wants to turn their dream into a reality. The insights provided by Nick Dancer are many of the same ones I used while growing Sweetwater from the back of my VW bus. Hard work, determination, and perseverance pay off, as does a commitment to doing the right thing. Readers of Day-In, Day-Out will learn how to apply those invaluable principles to their own lives." --Chuck Surack , founder and CEO, Sweetwater Sound "Day In, Day Out is down to earth, elegant, totally practical, well-buffed, and a multi-faceted work that contributes to the quality of the reader's life much more than a quick casual observer is likely to realize. While one could certainly get away with less well-rounded business advice, anyone who takes the long-term, high-quality, ethically responsible approach to business and life will absolutely want to read Nick's great new book." --Ari Weinzweig , co-founder of Zingerman's Community of Businesses, author of Zingerman's Guide to Good Leading, Part 1: Building a Great Business "Day In, Day Out is filled with practical and simple messages that help to navigate life -- both personally and professionally. Nick teaches us that life doesn't need to be complicated. Simply show up, be practical, do the work, and the rest will take care of itself." --Rob Dube , co-founder and president of imageOne, and author of the book Donothing About the Author Nick Dancer owns and operates Dancer Concrete Design, a specialty concrete finishing company that started in his basement and has grown to be the leader for architectural concrete finishes in the region.
