Testimonials on Dave Donatiu
When you meet someone… there are times when you just know there is something about them. Dave Donatiu is one of those for me.
I did the first interview with him on my radio program, Abstract Illusion Radio and during this one, we touched on a bit of my issues about not speaking my truth, withholding my true power…and he suggested that if I was open to this, he would come on again and continue the process of acceptance. I agreed and what a wonderful, releasing time it has been.
Dave hit it right on with my issues and quickly assisted me in acknowledging my resistance about speaking my truth and the reasons for it. Dave guided me through a realization process and opened myself up to a deeper sense of my power and speaking my truths.
It was an amazing show that has blessed me in a new beginning for my relationships…with myself and others. Thank you Dave… for all you are and be. Blessings and Peace
Dave is without question a pioneer in his field of accessing greater human potential.
When I say “pioneer”, I am not so much talking about content, as much as practical application. What is both unique and extremely timely about Dave is his gutsy ability to practically apply principles we have read, heard about and longed for in our daily lives for years, and ground them firmly in the present. He is not interested in “someday” or “in the future”; he is very much focused on NOW.
In other words, his approach bridges the gap between what many of us have read and known about accessing our deepest potential in life, yet have never been able to actualize–and brings us firmly and resolutely into a vision of EXACTLY what these principles look, feel, smell, and taste like in our everyday existence.
He provides the tools to give us in a surprisingly short period of time (depending on our dedication) what we thought might take us a lifetime to achieve.
His a brilliant therapist with extraordinary skills…If you are in San Diego and need support, set up an appointment with him ASAP.
Independent of this crisis (emergency brain MRI), I had already planned to post this personal recommendation for Dave’s high level transformational work. He has helped me and my family tremendously during my recent breakdown.
You make me feel that I have shown kindness to a fellow human, sure wish more people could experience the incredible sense of satisfaction.
You appear to have a natural talent for calmly talking to people. You demonstrate a sincere warmth and caring to make life easier for anyone willing to lend an ear. I admire that and would love to apply encouragement for cultivation.
The world needs more people like you, if a kind word kindles the spirit within then so be it.
Dave, I got three things from your seminar:
1— Now is what I have — right now, not the past or future, but now. I am making a decision in this moment. The decision I make right now will create my life. The quality of my decision (i.e. the action I take) will produce my intended result (i.e. the life I want). I learned from the seminar that in order to create a quality life, I have to make quality decisions.
Right now is the power of creation — this moment.
2— It is too easy to get caught up in life. Too often I have felt that I have to do this or I have to do that. At the end of the day, I have often felt exhausted and frustrated because I didn’t get around to getting “my” stuff done.
From the seminar, I have been enlightened to learn of the power of scheduling. Successfully creating the life I want begins by successfully scheduling each day in the direction I want to go. Through proactive scheduling, I now schedule into my day, what steps I want to take in creating the life I want. And now, it gets done. It really is quite simple.
3— The time management seminar inspired me to develop a scheduling and goal achieving systems that now works for me. Your enthusiasm and excitement in your presentation were real inspiring and got me thinking about time in a different way. As you put it, time does not exist. It is possible to step out of this box called time. When I do that, I have found I am more able to direct my life.
Time doesn’t direct my actions. I direct my actions within specific intervals of “time.” The action I take is real. Time is only a form of measurement that can be useful in helping me evaluate the effectiveness of my actions.
Thanks a lot Dave for helping me get out of the time box!
I just wanted to Thank you again for the amazing work that you facilitated with me.
Just to let you know I went to the gym and I had probably a 10-15% increase in mobility and stretching. That just happened instantly. I have never been able to touch my toes the way I have been able to stretch my lower back. Zero back pain for the first time since I can remember.
I already had another epiphany.
An amazing couple of days working with you and just instant physical feedback and results.
Thank you!
Who To Trust And How To Choose A Guide, Facilitator Or Path?
Your magnificent essence – your true Self – is waiting for you to accept and FEEL. As a guide for your journey, I listen to your body, heart and soul, and FEEL the truth of your essence to guide you to unleash your beauty and power within.
Thinking Life AND Feeling Life … Use Both To Wisely Choose!
I know how challenging it is to find a guide, workshop, coach, webinar or book that might help you get something you want, or make a change.
And then once you find something to help you along, how do you trust that it will work? Is it truly worth investing your personal resources – time, money, energy and attention – to learn and use that information?
Above on this page I shared my story, Q & A – all of a synthesis in words of my life’s journey. Words, though powerful, lie more in a realm of thinking about life. Yes, I felt about my journey, and translated that into words.
Yet how do I get across almost 60 years of life in mere words? You could read between the lines and feel into my story. But even that is not enough. Why? Some of you FEEL life more than THINK life.
Additionally, no matter how much of my background I share, it would not come close to who I truly am and how I guide you on your journey.
I am NOT just a thinker of life. I FEEL life deeply, so I discern the potential value of a methodology, path or approach by applying my out-of-the-box evaluations, and additionally through feeling into the creator of what I evaluate. Though I prefer to learn only from the originator of what I learn, often that is not available, so I evaluate the guide/teacher/facilitator through thinking AND FEELING routes.
I invite you to read my message below and FEEL from your body, heart and soul what I offer as you think and FEEL about hiring me to guide your journey.
I AM one of the “good ones”.
A Message To You, Dear Ones, That FEEL Life
To You Dear Ones That FEEL Life ...
WATCH!
Watch for the wise ones who point you to shine light on YOUR truth,
and you cry as they illuminate what was once dark.
LISTEN!
Listen for the elders who train you to whisper to your Soul,
and you resonate as they sing a song you hear in your heart of hearts.
SENSE!
Sense the perceptive ones who teach you to know your true Self,
and you laugh as they notice how you evade your magnificence.
REACH!
Reach for the leaders who implore you to seize the inner knowing you feel in your bones,
and you tremble as they loosen your grip on the lies you held so tight.
KEEP REACHING
There are those of us who wait — calmly alert, and alertly calm.
Some of us not so calm.
We poke and evoke, inform and transform.
We are really good at it!
And we are among you — the good ones!
But you must keep reaching,
Enough to stumble when you really want to find us.
And when you look, open your eyes — really wide.
Try a very cold shower, a dawning sun, or a lot of caffeine.
Stop eating for a couple of days.
Or be alone in nature for three — that will open.
And do the unexpected.
Start small.
Reverse your toilet paper roll.
Take a route to work you never take.
Eat what you never eat.
Watch what you never watch.
Go bigger.
Call the friend you never call.
Forgive that person you never forgave.
Say you are sorry to that person you didn’t.
Visit that person you never visit.
If you keep reaching, open your eyes wide, and do the unexpected,
You WILL stumble.
You HAVE to stumble!
You can only find us when you are not looking in the ways you always do.
If you look as you always look, you will find what you always find.
We, the good ones, are not found where you always look.
Why?
Silly! You would have already found us!
So reach.
So really reach.
Keep reaching.
Now open your eyes.
Open them really wide.
Do the unexpected.
Yes, you can start small.
But you may need to go bigger at some point.
And stumble.
You MUST stumble.
Really stumble!
Are you reaching?
Really reaching?
Oh. THERE!
Hi. I got you!
