Dennis J. Henson has a career of singular achievement. Currently the Founder and President of Vanguard Marketing and Investments, Inc and a renowned leader and educator in both the real estate and personal growth industries, he was stumped for a moment when a podcast host asked him: “If you could name the one thing that’s had the greatest impact on your students’ what would it be?” 

And then it became clear to him. “Form the habit of reading something everyday that educates or inspires them.” 

Just as he personally has done for a lifetime. And that is the core of the philosophy that he has used to inspire thousands of other businesspeople and leaders who desire more out of life. And it has led to his profound new book Real Impact, Daily Inspiration. 

Over the course of the past 30+ years, when Dennis was moved by a quote, a poem or someone’s empowering story, he gathered it for his own inspiration. And now 32 of those captivating stories, a hundred quotes and a handful of meaningful poems are providing profound wisdom and life-changing impetus for readers.

Real Impact, Daily Inspiration is designed to get people beyond doubting themselves, questioning why their momentum is stalled or suffering from imposter syndrome. The book shows how so many people of humble beginnings, limited means and nearly insurmountable obstacles, persevered with unflagging belief in their ideas and succeeded beyond anyone’s expectations—except their own! You’ll recognize most of the profiles, but you may not know what they had to go through to become the figures we recognize and honor today for the impact they made.                                                                                              

Dennis’ book is intended to help people develop the habit of reading daily something that will improve their belief in themselves and inspire them to action. He suggests not reading the book cover to cover, but rather a bit at a time. “It should be sipped like fine wine and consumed in combination with other good books.”  A suggested reading list of which he offers within Real Impact, Daily Inspiration’s pages.

The reason the book features a genie’s lamp on the cover is that Dennis holds that reading is the superpower that unleashes all other powers and whose magic is indeed the powerful “Law of Nature” — similar to the effect of gravity, inertia or magnetism. He says, even though it is invisible, it can move mountains, change seas’ tides and even conquer space.  Reading the right content can conquer inner space—moving the heart and mind---which in turn produces impact. 

In addition to launching Vanguard Marketing and Investments, Inc in 2003, Dennis has authored numerous books and courses on Business and Real Estate Investing. He served as president of the Arlington Real Estate Investing Association from 2005-2018. Dennis is a dedicated educator, inspiring countless individuals to achieve their goals both in real estate and life through his bestselling books, captivating workshops, and international speaking engagements. And for many years before that, he helped mold young people as a band or choir director at high schools, colleges, regional bands and churches. Today, he offers his Real Impact Training to help people jumpstart a new level of life. 

Says Dennis: “With the ‘Law of Nature’, a seed planted in fertile ground and tended will sprout, grow and produce a plant containing many new seeds. If you plant good seeds in our mind, seeds of health, success and prosperity, you will harvest those very things. And, as with the plants, what you will receive will be significantly multiplied.” 

If they life you want is just out of reach, then Real Impact, Daily Inspiration can put you over the top!
