When your goal is clear, our Toolbox offers the shortcut to get there.
Our Toolbox is a growing collection of proven tools, techniques, systems, frameworks, and methods - all designed to help you find smart shortcuts on your journey. But to use a shortcut wisely, you first need to know your destination.
That’s why every blog post begins by explaining the underlying theory - concise, clear, and always grounded in practical relevance. At the end of each article, you’ll find the corresponding tool - a hands-on resource to support your implementation.
Each tool we present is built on solid experience, whether from personal application, thorough research - or both.
"Every tool must be shaped by experience." - Leonardo da Vinci
We invite you to explore our Toolbox - and discover fresh ideas, clever shortcuts, and new perspectives along the way.
A quick guide to what you'll find
Not everything that’s helpful is automatically a „tool“. Here's how we differentiate:
- Tools are digital resources - from apps to templates - designed for immediate practical use.
- Techniques are exercises you can apply straight away to improve a specific aspect, such as a breathing technique to reduce stress.
- Systems represent holistic, long-term approaches with routines and feedback loops, like a habit-tracking system via app or journal.
- Frameworks offer structured thinking models to help make sense of complex topics – like the Big Five personality model for self-assessment.
- Methods are defined ways to solve problems or achieve specific outcomes – such as the brainstorming method to generate creative ideas.
- Principles and “Laws” like the Eisenhower Principle, the Rockefeller Habits, or Parkinson’s Law provide additional orientation and thought-provoking insights.
