The 5 Assets of Genius are your mental focus, your physical energy, your personal willpower, your original talent and your daily time.

These primary assets are at their highest early in the morning. That’s why you want to start your day well and perform your most important pursuits during your most valuable hours instead of wasting this precious opportunity fooling around with your technology, watching the news or oversleeping.

The 5 AM Club, Robin Sharma

I think our greatest failing as humans, is when we treat things that are finite as infinite, and callously fritter them away only to regret when we come up short.

When we see mental focus, physical energy, personal willpower, talent and time as finite resources within a day, I think we really start being more deliberate and careful in the way we choose to spend our time and engage our focus.

Question is.. how do we keep the finiteness of these resource at the back of our minds?

How do we introduce the concept of scarcity with respect to these resources?
