VULNERABLE POST – PLEASE PRAY FOR ME
i know it is not common to be vulnerable on a post. most of us post our best moments, our triumphs while only a few share their defeats. i have been guilty of this too.


but for anyone who knows me,you know that for most of my life i have been overweightand i have been on a cycle of doing something to lose weight and then getting bored with it and rationalising to myself that who i am on the inside is more important than what i look like on the outside.


i have spent a lot of time getting to know myself. seeing what i do well and accepting my flaws, and loving myself no matter what.
i have made up numerous stories to protect myself and to rationalize my actions to myself and to you.


and still, i have tried numerous times to drop weight and it works for a while until it doesn’t and the weight comes back and the cycle continues

i have even reached out to people for their prayers to help me on this journey and people have been so kind and generous and loving and supportive and i lose weight for a while until again i don’t.


i could worry about it and feel sorry for myself, but i don’t; nor do i want that or anything for that matter from you, i want only to come clean, to stand vulnerably before you and to share with you not only my strength but my weakness.


and in that vulnerability, i make public to you my desire to once again come forward and share with you i have felt the call within me to drop the walls i carry, and lose the weight that protects me from feeling those closest to me and that disconnects me from you.


if you have read this far thank you. i am almost done 🙂 i want nothing from you. i am not selling a program, nor am i trying to make myself appear more than i am; i want only to to share with you a place where i feel out of alignment.


i ask god to bless us and to give us the strength to do what we know is in front of us and i ask you your forgiveness if i have ever tried to appear to be more than i am.


i want to live in a new way danny plus nothing.


thank you for the courage you show in living your life. you inspire me.

    Visionary. Author. Magician. Mentor. Speaker.

    Daniel Levin walked away from an opportunity to run a billion dollar business, to hitchhike around the world to find happiness and inner peace.   His life has been a combination of incredible victories and massive defeats. He left the seminary one day before being ordained a Rabbi, and lived as a monk in a monastery for 10 years.  He has meditated every day for over 45 years. He has run a restaurant, a publishing house, a market, a meditation retreat, has owned and run a clothing company, a branding company and a coaching business.   He was the Director of Business Development at Hay House and led it’s growth from $3,000,000 to $100,000,000 in revenue over a 10 year time span.  He started DbL, by branding “the most anticipated hotel opening of the year 2013” according to USA Today, The Andaz Maui @ Wailea Resort and Spa. The book he wrote for them, The Ohana of Red Earth created a corporate culture of family not staff.   Levin is a rare blend of mystic and business guy. He is a storyteller and the beautiful story he weaves in his book, The Mosaic touches the hearts of people and soothes their souls. It is a story about loss and discovery, about seeing the things we can’t see, about knowing the value of every living thing, and about connection.   He is married to his soul mate who teaches him what it means to love and be loved. He is the father of a beautiful special needs daughter who teaches him that he is able to do far more than he ever thought possible; the step father of a handsome and fun loving teenage boy who helps him remember how powerful fear is; and a brilliant and beautiful teenage daughter who reminds him how important it is to live inside out; and #hashtag, their adorable and loving golden retriever who reminds him that life is all about play.   They live by the ocean feeling very blessed, loving others and helping people get what they want.
