The RISE Workbook — the official companion to Successfully Mediocre
What's Inside

The four phases, one page at a time.

R

Reflect.

See where you actually are. Score every dimension of your life with the Life Assessment. Define your core values and turn them into a decision filter. Write your 5-Year Letter.

I

Identify.

Decide where you're going. Set your 5-year vision and 1-year targets across health, wealth, relationships, career, business, recreation, and spiritual life.

S

Strategize.

Choose what matters most. Find the 20 percent driving 80 percent of your results and build your one-page strategic plan. Decide what you're done doing.

E

Execute.

Make it stick. Install daily and weekly rhythms, a scoreboard you'll actually look at, and the accountability to keep it running.

The Deliverables

  • ·Your Life Assessment scores, in writing
  • ·Your core values, defined
  • ·Your 5-Year Letter
  • ·Targets in every dimension of your life, not just work
  • ·A one-page strategic plan
  • ·Daily and weekly rhythms that make it permanent

Sound familiar?

Busy but not fulfilled. Achieving but not aligned. You set goals at work and nowhere else, and the rest of life runs on autopilot. That is not a character flaw. That is a systems failure, and the workbook is where you start fixing it. Read Successfully Mediocre and this is your companion. Haven't read the book yet? Start here anyway.

FAQ

Is it actually free?

Yes. The RISE Companion Guide is the free companion workbook to the book Successfully Mediocre. Enter your email and we'll send it to your inbox, plus a short series of emails you can unsubscribe from anytime.

Do I need to read the book first?

No. The companion guide stands on its own. The book gives you the full story behind the system.

How long does it take?

The first exercise takes twenty minutes. The full four phases take as long as you give them.

Is this for founders and entrepreneurs?

Yes. The RISE system was built for people running companies, teams, and portfolios who want their next level to not cost them the rest of their life.

How is this different from executive coaching?

Executive coaching is a conversation. The 12-Week RISE Install is a complete operating system for your life and business, with a written plan and daily/weekly rhythms you keep after the engagement ends.

Can my EO forum or leadership team use this?

Yes. We run private installations, workshops, and keynotes for leadership teams, peer groups, and founder organizations like EO and YPO.

Your life. By design. Not by default.
