5 Ways to Help Spread the Word
And so it begins. Today is the day that DRIVE officially launches.Â
Here’s what I know from previous books: These ideas will spread solely because of people like you — intelligent, forward-thinking, optimistic folks who know that the way the world really changes is conversation by conversation.
If you’re up for the challenge, here are 5 ways you can spread the word:
1. Share the “Two Questions” video, the TED talk, or our super-short summaries.
2. Drop by one of our events this month in DC, Boston, Philly, New York, Seattle, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Portland, Chicago, St. Louis, Minneapolis, or Dallas.
3. Write a review online — on your blog, on a bookseller site, on Facebook, anywhere you’d like.
4. Add to the #drivebook Twitter stream.
5. Talk about these ideas with your colleagues, your boss, your staff, your students, parents, friends, and neighbors. Maybe even buy one of them their very own copy. (If you do that, let me know. As my thanks, I’ll send that person a signed bookplate.)
Thanks for keeping me motivated.
Just posted my review at http://davidburkus.com/. I will also post it on my podcast website. Thanks again for the teleseminar on New Year’s Day. I hope it becomes an annual thing.
Here’s a post about my favorite book of yours, Johnny Bunko.

It’s from 2008. How time flies! I look forward to reading Drive. Maybe I’ll see you in Pasadena (Los Angeles).
Thanks for your wonderful books! I really enjoyed A Whole New Mind too.

The two questions are very powerful and require great contemplation. I think the questions are very accessible. Everyone can take time to ponder and pursue. Though, I must say it takes courage. We all have the ability to pull together some courage and go after this in 2010.
Boy –Drive is great friction (In A Whole New Mind sorta way) It provides a treasure trove of resource materials that include well constructed concepts harnessed together in such a way as to bring the Core Concept of Motivation into the light of day.
Thanks Dan — I am proud of you and your team for producing another “book experience” that is a joy to share with five++
ways to do it. (you know I am buzzin up a storm since this work is near and dear to my GOOD WORK.)
Best,
David
Dan, can’t make the Pasadena event here in L.A. area, but I will be sure to talk up the book. Still pushing the wisdom of A Whole New Mind in the education community here…
Keep up the good work.

I have your book and plan to start reading it soon. I was reminded to get back to it by the interview you recently did with Jonathan Fields.
Any chance that you’ll include a visit to Canada as part of the book tour (I’d suggest Toronto and Vancouver, at the least).
Oh, I’ve just glanced at some of the appendices you included at the back of the book and I really like those.
I have bought copies for all of my senior staff as part of our corporate book club meetings (following on AWNM being our first book).
Once completed with the work, I will be blogging about it.
I’d be thrilled to have a signed bookplate from you.
Dan,
Congratulations on the book launch.
I have posted a review of the book and a brief analysis of how it relates to public speakers and presenters: http://wp.me/pwfa1-u7
Cheers!

Hey Dan,
Shared the “two questions video” at http://www.productivepinoy.com/ …
This made me think “what is my sentence”… wearing many hats makes it a bit difficult pinpoint!
Dan- Just posted a review of Drive on my blog:

Thanks again for sharing your ideas.

Hey Dan,
Love your take on DRIVE about ‘Intrinsic Rewards’ especially at the intersection with Adaptive Challenges!
Love the look, feel, and message of the What’s Your Sentence video and featured it on my first-ever blog ( http://www.teamhigherground.com/blog/2010/1/14/whats-your-sentence.html ) with a suggested 3rd question to bring about continuous learning.
Cheers and Thanks for Stoking my gray matter!
