“I want to stay sharp, not slide into obscurity.”
This is the mindset I hear from the most forward-thinking leaders.
It’s not fear-driven – it’s ambition-driven.
They know success can be a plateau as much as a peak.
And they know the best time to sharpen their edge
is before they feel blunt, restless or behind the curve.
Why staying sharp is a leadership discipline
Great leaders sharpen themselves through:
- Constant learning
- Stretch assignments
- Fresh perspectives
- Honest self-reflection
They don’t assume past wins guarantee future success.
They keep investing in themselves. Not out of panic,
but out of a deep respect for their evolving potential.
The risk of coasting
It’s easy to assume “good enough” will carry you.
But even the most brilliant blade dulls without attention.
The signs you’re drifting:
- Your thinking feels repetitive
- You’re running old plays in a new game
- You’re more efficient, but less creative
Without sharpening, leadership slides from exceptional to automatic.
Why The Project is designed for edge-keepers
The Project is for leaders who want to stretch –

It’s where you:
- Challenge your assumptions
