Scott Power’s five principles to Thrive

Ironman training

Scott Power, a senior brand strategist at Kaiser Permanente, describes his work as "helping the organization with its branding and marketing efforts." As down-to-earth as that sounds, he's no average desk jockey.

In 2008, Power earned the title of Ironman when he completed the grueling Ironman Triathlon. He shares with us his five guiding principles that help him stay focused and motivated to live every day to the fullest.

  • Take responsibility for your own health and happiness.
  • Stay chronically curious—it keeps the mind active.
  • Push the limits of your comfort zone.
  • Help others, and be generous every day of the week.
  • Do something awesome and fun. Life is for living, not existing.
