“Every system is perfectly designed for the results it gets,”- W Edwards Deming
We are all born with dreams and aspirations. While for many, this only remains a fairy tale, for a fortunate percentage, they have overcome challenges to live their dreams. The great news is that you can become whoever you want, regardless of your current life circumstances. Life has a way of rewarding those who dream, dare, and face their fears to achieve their goals. These are the same sentiments echoed by a gifted author, Dan Nicholson.

The Rigging the Game Podcast is also notable for sensitizing business people on calculating how long it will take them using Solvable Problem, a tool in the CertaintyApp. These entrepreneurs can then close the gap and get closer to their goals by applying the tools and principles.

“We meet people at their individual point of need. Rather than telling everyone to conform, a linchpin strategy you need to show people is to figure out what they actually want and how they can play their own game, (i.e., lean into who they are). Then we teach them how to actually think about risk, effort, and optionality. Effectively, we help them unlearn all their bad habits just like I had to,” Dan explains.
A born philanthropist, Dan is also passionate about creating a better world for everyone. His company actively participates in corporate social responsibility through donations to non-profits dedicated to helping build strong children. These donations are often channeled to schools to help them hire more social and emotional professionals.

Dan’s goal is to continue helping more people beyond the business community to chase their dreams. To him, you can become whoever you desire if you lean into your inherent, unique strengths and actively work toward achieving what you want, not what everyone else is telling you to do.
