His webinar made me cry. In a recent webinar, online course creation guru Danny Iny told a story of a moment in the early days of growing his business.
His wife was working the business, too. Dedicated to personal growth and improvement, he did employee reviews on his team. One day while they were driving out of town, he asked his wife to do a review on him.
She asked him the basic questions. Like most of us, he was hard on himself and went through the list of what he could have / should have / would have done…


Interrupting him, she said, “You’re doing a great job.”“That choked me up,” he told us.
He was happy to work hard at what he did every day. But those words were his undoing. He didn’t realize how much they’d mean to him.
He told the audience the 5 words we want to hear: “You’re doing a good job, too.”
It was a webinar. He had no clue who I am or what I’ve been doing. But those words choked me up!
