Dan Sullivan Questions
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-PE8DgFaj0
↓↓Summary↓↓↓
【Dan Sullivan's Sales Questions】
① The Fundamental Mindset of Sales
Many salespeople operate like “mixed martial artists,” blending various techniques and approaches depending on the situation.
While sales typically follow a framework of seven steps, one of the most powerful techniques within that framework is a question developed by Dan Sullivan.
② Dan Sullivan’s Magic Question
“If we were having this conversation three years from today, and you were looking back over those three years, what would have to happen—both personally and professionally—for you to feel satisfied with your progress?”
The power of this question lies in its ability to spark the client’s own vision of an ideal future.
Whereas many salespeople try to impose an external goal—“Here’s what you should aim for”—this question draws out the customer’s internal desires and aspirations.
As a result, the client begins to articulate their own dreams, which deepens trust and increases their motivation to buy.
③ Dan Sullivan’s DoS Framework (for Proposal Development)
To build a persuasive and client-focused proposal, use these three foundational questions:
Dangers
Identify three current challenges or risks the client is facing.
Example: Poor sales performance and missed targets → Risk of termination or lost promotion opportunities.Opportunities
Identify three possible growth opportunities in the current situation—such as tapping into a new market, strengthening a product line, or leveraging underused talent.Strengths
List three existing strengths—whether at the company, team, or individual level—such as credibility, expertise, or a loyal customer base.
→ By framing your proposal around these three dimensions, you create a tailored and compelling case that resonates with the client’s actual needs and situation.
④ Put It Into Practice
Dan Sullivan’s question and the DoS framework aren’t just for sales—they’re highly effective in coaching, leadership, and personal development as well.
While the book The Dan Sullivan Question is currently hard to find, it’s well worth reading if you come across a copy.
【Step-by-Step Summary: The R-Factor Question (Dan Sullivan's Question Method)】
① Background & Introduction
Dan Sullivan shares a story from a sales call with a potential client (pseudonym: Jack) who was considering joining the Strategic Coach program.
Jack had been referred by a trusted acquaintance, but he didn’t know much about the program itself.
② Leading with a Question, Not a Pitch
When Jack asked Sullivan to explain what the program was about, Sullivan deliberately chose not to go into details.
- Instead, he asked a single powerful question:
“If we were having this conversation three years from today, and you were looking back over those three years, what would have to happen—both personally and professionally—for you to feel satisfied with your progress?”
③ The Power of Silence and Client Self-Discovery
After asking the question, Sullivan stayed completely silent.
At first, Jack said nothing. But slowly, he began to speak—revealing that he had struggled with alcoholism up until three years ago. He then went on to speak passionately for 23 minutes about what the next three years meant to him.
④ The Outcome: The Client Bought the Relationship
When Jack finished talking, he said, “Your program sounds great,” and decided on the spot to join.
Sullivan hadn’t pitched anything. But through a single question—and the discipline to remain silent—he allowed Jack to feel that the program was exactly what he needed.
⑤ Core Insight (Sullivan’s Explanation)
People don't buy a product or service first--they buy the relationship.
This question acts as a trigger, allowing the other person to quickly sense whether a genuine relationship is being offered.
Moments of deep self-disclosure—such as Jack’s admission about alcoholism—are powerful indicators of trust. And that trust can be built in mere seconds.
⑥ Conclusion: The Power of the R-Factor Question
This question is known as the R-Factor (relationship-factor) question, and it marks the starting point of deep trust and connection.
Its true power lies in prompting the other person to reflect and speak for themselves—simultaneously building trust, empathy, and authentic relationship.
[To repeat the key question:]
“If we were having this conversation three years from today, and you were looking back over those three years, what would have to happen in your work or life for you to feel satisfied with your progress?”
Who You Partner With Matters
People who are better than you.
People who share your values.
Meeting Super Talent
Clarifying Your Unique Ability:
What do you love and excel at?
If it's not something you're passionate about,
Delegate it. Outsource it.
Before increasing your sales by 10x,
Before multiplying your profits by 10x,
Increase your talents by 10x!
The key is partnering with others!
The world is governed by the 80:20 Rule.
Focus your energy on the 20!
[The Essence of "Unique Ability"]
① What is Unique Ability?
Unique ability refers to the inherent skills you were born with.
It’s not something you learn later in life—it’s an essential talent you’re naturally gifted with.
② It Appears in Childhood
By the time you’re 3-4 years old, you’re already naturally gravitating toward certain activities.
For instance, activities you’d rather be doing instead of going to school.
This is your “sweet spot”—the area where you can naturally become engrossed.
③ Many People Get Diverted by Education or Society
As people grow, they’re often pulled away by education or society, which says, “You can’t make a living doing that,” or “You need to be more practical.”
As a result, they stray further from their unique abilities.
④ Successful Entrepreneurs Are Those Who Stayed True to Childhood Tendencies
True entrepreneurs are often the ones who stayed true to their childhood curiosity and passions.
They trusted their own “likes” and “strengths” more than the opinions of others and acted on them.
⑤ You Must Shape It into Something the World Values
However, the world doesn’t owe you a reward for your talent.
That’s why you must transform “what you love the most” into something that people recognize as valuable.
This is the key to turning your unique ability into a career.
⑥ Living Authentically
If you observe real entrepreneurs (those now in their 50s and 60s), you’ll find that they’re living in a way that’s closest to who they were as a 6-year-old.
Living according to your unique ability allows you to stay aligned with the natural flow of life.

✍️ Write your thoughts here:
Step 3: What Makes You Lose Track of Time?
What activities make you lose track of time because you’re so engrossed?
What could you do all day long without feeling tired?
What do you love so much that you sometimes wonder if it could even be considered work?
✍️ Write your thoughts here:
Step 4: Reflect on Times You Were Appreciated or Paid for Your Skills
Look back at moments when you were thanked or rewarded.
When did you feel that you were truly helping others, whether through volunteering or paid work?
What abilities did you use in those moments?
How did your strengths contribute to others?
✍️ Write your thoughts here:
Step 5: Synthesize and Articulate
Based on the answers above, complete the following statement:
📝 I express my unique talent of “” through activities such as “_____________,”
and deliver the value of “______” to others.

| Fascinating & Motivating Activities that | captures your heart and makes you excited for the future! |
Dan Sullivan's "90 day, 25-Year Growth Model"
① Visualizing the Present: ABC Model
Circle = Current use of time and emotional reactions
Classified into three layers:
| Category | Content | Action |
|---|---|---|
| A = Irritating | Sources of irritation, discomfort, and dissatisfaction. Includes people, tasks, and situations. | Should be eliminated immediately. |
| B = Okay | Stable but not exciting. Mostly cash-flow related. | Should be systematized and automated. |
| C = Fascinating & Motivating | Activities that captivate the heart and excite you for the future. | Should focus more here. |
👉 Every 90 Days:
Eliminate A
Systematize B
Increase time investment in C
② The Emotional Transformation Process: Four Cs
This is the process of gaining Confidence through "new challenges":
Commitment: Decide to act even without the guarantee of success.
Courage: A phase that’s unstable and scary. Key to growth.
Capability: Gaining new skills and methods beyond courage.
Confidence: True confidence is built through repetition.
🔄 By cycling through the 4Cs, you can maintain a youthful growth state at all times.
③ Long-Term Perspective: 100 90-Day Periods in 25 Years
90 days × 100 periods = 25 years
For each quarter (90 days), execute the following:
Eliminate A
Automate B
Focus on C
Grow through the 4C cycle
📈 This is a compound growth strategy.
"Compound ability" provides returns greater than money.
④ What is a Game Changer?
A person who changes the conventional wisdom of their industry.
A person who creates such change that competitors become customers or promoters.
This requires courageous commitment.
⑤ Application & Practice Points
Every 90 days, inventory your A, B, and C areas.
Clarify "What is your Game Changer?"
Turn it into a scorecard (metrics) and digitize it.
🎯 Final Point: People Remember Only What Excites Them
Past anger and dissatisfaction don’t last long.
What remains in memory are "excitement," "passion," and "joy."
Therefore, the future should be designed with "excitement" as the standard.

The Theory and Practice for Escaping “Gap Thinking”
① The Core Issue: What Is the “Gap”?
Gap Thinking = A habitual mindset of measuring yourself against an ideal.
When you focus on the gap between your current reality and an ideal vision:
You tend to feel like you’re “still not enough” or “haven’t made it yet.”
Result: Leads to self-criticism, discouragement, and a sense of powerlessness.
② The Key Solution: Measure by Achievements, Not Ideals
Instead of comparing yourself to an ideal, shift your focus to what you achieved today.
This shift in mindset isn’t a “one-time breakthrough”—It requires daily, intentional practice to form a new habit.
③ Daily Practice: The Three Wins Exercise Every Evening
🌗 Two steps to do at night:
1. Reflect on three “Wins” from today
Small wins are enough—progress made, tasks completed, moments of gratitude, etc.
Recall each moment vividly and visualize it like a short scene.
2. Anticipate three “Wins” for tomorrow
Based on your schedule or goals, envision what wins you'd like to create tomorrow.
💡 As a result:
You go to bed thinking “Today was a good day,”
and wake up with a sense of “I’m looking forward to today.”
④ Ongoing Impact: Habits Transform Your Perception of Life
3 wins a day × 1 week = 21 victories.
With this repetition:
You build confidence and a positive personal narrative.
Even in the face of challenges or obstacles, you don’t lose the feeling of “I’m still winning.”
In the end:
You gain the power to define the meaning of your past and future—on your own terms.
⑤ Application & Ripple Effect: Share It Beyond Yourself
This mindset and habit:
Supports your own self-management
But is also something to share with your children, partner, and team members
“Today’s 3 wins, tomorrow’s 3 wins” is
the smallest unit of habit that lets you create a meaningful day even in a challenging world.
✅ Summary
| Challenge | Falling into self-doubt by comparing yourself to an ideal (Gap Thinking) |
|---|---|
| Solution | Focus daily on “3 concrete wins” |
| Method | Do “3 wins from today” and “3 anticipated wins for tomorrow” each night |
| Effect | Builds self-worth and helps shape a forward-looking life story |
