What is Sharpen the Saw (Covey) Covey means that, just as you need to sharpen the saw now and then, or just as you need to brush your teeth to keep them white and healthy, you also need to invest time and effort at regular intervals to keep your body and mind in good shape. They are your tools. Managers who (think they) are too busy to do some exercising or take a break can indeed easily fall into a trap of working with poor 'tools'.

Sharpen the saw I think, my friend,it means that you have to use what you've learnt before and you have to "use" even the mistakes you've made... Simply don't lose what you've aquired during your life.

Take some time to Sharpen your Saw Ever worked for hours with an unsharp saw?
Now and then you should take some time to reconsider if what your are doing is still effective and appropriate for what you want to achieve.

Sharpen the Saw: Always be Prepared I think the process of sharpening the saw must be regular based on observations and analysis. It's a matter of being always ready. A sharp saw definitely cuts well and faster results in success. The way they say in the Indian air force - the more you sweat in peace, the less you bleed in war. So always be prepared.

Sharpen the Saw Sharpening the Saw is all about the 4 Ls: Live, Love, Learn and Leave a Legacy.
Stephen Covey used an interesting metaphor to talk about how we can take care of our physical, emotional, mental and spirtual needs. We can live a balanced life if we meet the above mentioned needs. Not meeting the needs of one of the 4 areas leads to frustration.
