There’s more to leadership than what happens inside your business.
For many entrepreneurs and business leaders, success in one area of life can quietly come at the expense of another. The business grows, but health slips. The calendar fills, but relationships get less attention. Responsibilities increase, but there’s less margin to think intentionally about the life you’re actually building.
That’s why we created the Integrated Life System.
Integrated Life is part of our broader Integrated Leadership approach at Strategic Doers Group—helping leaders bring greater clarity, intentionality, and alignment to the areas of life that matter most.
The system focuses on three areas:
Self Management — how you lead and care for yourself
Belonging & Influence — how you show up in the relationships and communities that matter
Stewardship — how intentionally you manage your time, resources, possessions, technology, and leadership responsibilities
The goal isn’t perfect balance.
It’s to stop allowing the most urgent part of life to continually crowd out the most important parts.
We’ve created a new home for the Integrated Life System where you can learn more about the framework, the 12 domains, and how it connects to the work we’re doing through Strategic Doers Group and Integrated Leadership.

Several years ago, during the 2020 election season, some friends introduced me to QAnon.

I'll admit—I was fascinated.

Not because I was looking for a new political identity, but because I enjoy connecting dots and understanding big stories. Looking back, I realize that's part of how God wired me. I love great storytellers like Aaron Sorkin and Taylor Sheridan, and I naturally enjoy discovering patterns and asking questions.

But over time, I realized something important.

The issue wasn't politics.

It was attention.

As I've continued developing the Integrated Life framework, one idea has continued to evolve:

Personal Technology → Digital Stewardship → Attention Stewardship.

Technology isn't really the thing we're stewarding.

Our attention is.

Today, I think about stewardship a little differently:

- Money Stewardship – How I invest my resources.
- Time Stewardship – How I spend my days.
- Health Stewardship – How I manage my energy.
- Attention Stewardship – What I allow to shape my mind, heart, and focus.

I've also realized something else:

Great stories inspire discernment.

Conspiracy stories often demand allegiance.

One invites investigation.

The other can quietly consume your attention.

For those of us who follow Christ and lead businesses, that's a dangerous trade.

Politics. Cable news. Social media. YouTube. AI. Sports. Even business itself...

None of these are inherently wrong.

But every one of them is competing for our attention—and our attention is one of God's greatest stewardships.

The question I've started asking isn't simply:

"Is this true?"

It's:

"Is this helping me become more faithful to the calling God has given me?"

As businessmen, we're called to create value, lead people, love our families, serve our churches, and steward what God has entrusted to us.

Maybe the goal isn't to consume more information.

Maybe it's to create more than we consume.

I'm continuing to develop this idea as part of the Integrated Life framework because I believe attention stewardship may be one of the defining leadership challenges of our time.

I pulled these out today—some of my old Nextel phones and my BlackBerry.

They reminded me of something we were telling businessmen more than 25 years ago:

**These are tools, not toys.**

In 2001, I was in the wireless phone business selling Nextel. One of the great promises of devices like these was that they could give you **“your office anywhere.”**

I remember advertising that even showed a golf course with the message: **This could be your office.**

At the time, that sounded like freedom.

Twenty-five years later, I realize that idea led me—and probably some of the businessmen I sold these devices to—a little astray.

Because if the golf course can become your office, so can the dinner table.

And the family vacation.

And the living room.

And eventually, almost anywhere.

The technology that was supposed to give us freedom also made it possible for work to follow us everywhere.

I've said for years that these devices were designed to help us stay on top of things.

But if we're not careful, they end up **keeping things on top of us.**

That's why I'm increasingly thinking about something I call Digital Intentionality.

The goal isn't simply less technology.

It's the right technology, used for the right purpose, in the right place, at the right time.

I love technology. I don't want to retreat from it. With AI, our tools are becoming more powerful than anything we could have imagined when I was carrying that BlackBerry.

But greater capability requires greater stewardship.

Technology should serve the life we're trying to build. It shouldn't quietly determine the life we live.

That's why stewardship of our digital devices is part of the Strategic Doers Group Integrated Life framework.

Businessmen spend a lot of time thinking about technology for the business.

Maybe we need to spend more time thinking about technology for the man leading the business.

Because technology doesn't create freedom simply by allowing us to work anywhere.

Leadership Creates Freedom.

I’m excited to share the newly updated Strategic Doers Group website.
The new site provides a clearer picture of who we serve, what happens inside a Strategic Doers Group, and how we help businessmen move from working in the business to leading it.
It was also designed with a strong mobile experience, making it easier to explore and share from a phone.
A special thank-you to Andrew Potter and the team at The Matchlight Group for helping bring the vision to life through the design and development of the new site. Matchlight specializes in helping strong businesses build brands and digital experiences that better reflect the quality of their work.
