Welcome to Darren Daly on demand, your most trusted resource to help you become better every day.

Here's your success mentor, Darren Hardy.

Ever notice how everybody talks about wasting time on Netflix or watching TikTok or YouTube videos or playing video games, when they should really

Spend three hours in pointless meetings, responding to unnecessary emails,

doing busy work that goes nowhere, and you feel, quote-unquote, productive. Yeah, you see,

that's the real danger. I worked with a CEO who was, quote-unquote, busy 16 hours a day,
