Topics, Sessions And Talks
CAVU is an Air Force acronym that stands for Ceiling and Visibility Unlimited. Translated, it describes the perfect conditions to be a fighter pilot, when steel blue skies invite them to spread their wings like a supersonic eagle. Fighter pilots cherish CAVU days because they know tomorrow can bring challenging conditions. Life is no different. In Fly Into the Wind, Colonel Dan shares a code of living that combines powerful tenets which helps you discover and seize your best life. Colonel Dan demonstrates how all of us are connected by God in more ways than we realize, and that the path to fulfillment begins with changing ourselves to better one another.
