About the Book

The purpose of this book is simple: to help you find the courage, focus, and intrinsic motivation you need to accomplish great and marvelous things-things that have purpose and meaning in your life. It's about turning your dreams into plans, your plans into actions, and your actions into meaningful results. The way it does this is through the ADEPT Model:

  • Accept: Accept the three economic laws of performing with intent.
  • Discover: Discover what matters most and gives you meaning and purpose.
  • Eliminate: Eliminate what doesn't matter-things that are distracting you from your purpose.
  • Plan: Plan a course of action to achieving what matters.
  • Take Action: Take action and develop the mindset you need to accomplish great things.

  • It doesn't matter whether you're a company executive or an in-the-trenches employee, a student or a soccer mom, an inventor or an entrepreneur, a business owner or a volunteer. If you want to enjoy a greater sense of fulfillment and satisfaction in what you do, no matter your field of endeavor, this books is for you. If you want to wake up in the morning with a sense of excitement and adventure for what the day has in store, and go to bed knowing that your contributions made a difference, this book is for you. If at this point you're still reading this, odds are this book is for you.

    About the Author: Lon Schiffbauer is an Assistant Professor of Business Management at Salt Lake Community College and Research Director with Vivifi, a business strategy consulting firm dedicated to helping companies develop thriving organizational cultures. In addition to his academic and consulting background, Lon has over 25 years' experience working for such companies as FedEx, Intel, and eBay, as well as a variety of small to mid-sized companies around the world. Lon holds an MBA and a Ph.D. in Industrial/Organizational Psychology. For his doctoral dissertation he studied the effects of the pursuit of self-esteem on an employee's ability to thrive in the workplace. He is also SPHR certified with the Society for Human Resource Management. Lon grew up in Palo Alto, CA, then went on to study and work in England, France, Japan, and Malaysia before settling in Sandy, Utah. Over the years Lon has accomplished many of his life's goals by using the principles included in this book. Together with his wife of close to 30 years Lon raised a family of five kids, earned several university degrees and certifications, and completed dozens of endurance sporting events; Ironman races, marathons, and century bike rides. With the help of his business partner, Lon started a successful consulting firm that supported clients all over the world. He also wrote several books and successfully transitioned his career from the corporate to the academic arena. Throughout all this, Lon maintained a healthy balance in his life by focusing his efforts on what mattered most at the time. (Then again, he still has a disassembled '65 MG Midget in his garage and countless unfinished books, so the guy still has a thing or two to learn.)
