Featured Story

Scott reveals how he developed his "5 R's" formula while trying to solve his own energy management challenges. Initially created for himself during periods when he felt he was "failing at the day," this system eventually became a powerful coaching tool that he's refined over years of client work. Scott compares his approach to Stephen Covey's concept of "sharpening the saw," illustrating how pausing to recharge—like stopping to charge the battery on his electric lawnmower—ultimately leads to greater productivity and enjoyment rather than pushing through exhaustion.

Key Takeaways
