5 AT A TIME was written as a self-help Planning Guide for life and career, with readers and adapters being individuals playing different holes in their life, as well as Corporate, Small Business, and Networking Groups these individuals might work or participate in. 

I would also like to think that 5 AT A TIME has a motivational leadership message that might make it good blog and workshop material for a Corporate, Small Business, and Networking Groups just based on word of mouth and our growing line up of testimonials supporting 5 AT A TIME as a good topic of conversation.

The three primary benefits from reading, discussing, and using the 5 AT A TIME planning process are:

  1. It is a conscious way to layout a life and career plan, with metrics, over however many more Holes of Life you have to play.  Anticipating good holes and some hazards to overcome along the way, you can build a plan for life and career renewable every 5 years, that will guarantee a significant increase in your ROL (Return on Life).  Life is an S Curve, with peaks and valleys, and a good 5- year plan will help you keep your head up, anticipate challenges and problems, and keep climbing.
  2. Good planning techniques can help you turn Problems into Opportunities—anticipating problems or hazards, building contingency plans in advance of the event covering monetary and emotional consequences, can make adjustments to your life and career plan smoother, less stressful, and good for your overall health.  Humans who plan life and career will live happier and longer lives.
  3. 5 AT A TIME life and career planning, like golf, is an individual sport, but great value can be gained by using it as a Training Tool and a)  integrating with your leadership team if you have your own business, b) matching key aspects with your employer’s mission statement to make you a more productive employee, c) laying out your 5 year plans alongside your spouse or partner’s plans to see if there is synergy or friction, and d)  most of  all encourage your children and young people you mentor at school or in other social groups, to get started with 5 AT A TIME planning on the earliest possible hole of life for maximum ROL.
