Danny Flood

Danny Flood is an author, entrepreneur, world traveler, rabble-rouser, friend, and lover from California. He needed more space than a cubicle and decided to live each day to its utmost. His book Buy Your Own Island: The Ultimate Guide to Breaking Free and Making Your Dreams Reality is a product of the journey that followed. It's a combination of life hacking, self-help, and a call to action blended into so-called lifestyle design. From selling niche products, redefining happiness and the value of money to using a virtual assistant, coach surfing, and healthy nutrition.

Incredible how much is possible with your laptop. Flood describes the skills and tools you need to design the dream life you want to pursuit.

Dream big. Take your dreams seriously and begin acting on them now.… (meer)
