Resources

The book teaches
the framework.
These tools help you apply it.

A catalog of companion resources — some free, some being built for later. Each one is designed to help you actually work an idea through the Five-R Framework, one phase at a time.

We’re rolling these out deliberately. Pricing, formats, and delivery will be finalized as each tool is ready.

Featured free resource

Five-R Idea Starter

Clarify the idea you're carrying, why it matters, what reality would look like, and which Five-R phase you may currently be in.

A short, printable starting point — intentionally simple. It won't finish your idea for you, but it will show you where to begin.

The catalog

Deeper tools for the deeper work.

Each resource is built around a concept from the book — a principle, an exercise, or a methodology. The book gives you the principle. These tools help you actually work through it with your own idea.

    Five-R Readiness Assessment

    Should you move to the next phase yet?

    Idea-to-Reality People Guide

    The right people for the phase you're actually in.

    NoteDraws on established frameworks such as the Big Five, DISC, Hunter/Farmer, Type A/B, and Belbin as introduced in the book. This tool is a guide to team design, not a personality test.

    Business Model Exploration Tool

    How your idea creates, delivers, and sustains value.

  • Coming SoonWorkshopReview

    Five-R Review Toolkit

    Stop long enough to listen to what reality is saying.

Start with the book

The framework in the book comes first. The tools help you apply it well.

Companion resources make more sense once you understand what each Five-R phase is asking of you.
