Stephen Covey Hits the Nail on the Head!

Habit 1 - Be Proactive: The habit of being proactive, or the habit of personal vision, means taking responsibility for our attitudes and actions.

Habit 2 - Begin with the end in Mind: This is the habit of personal leadership. Start with a clear destination to understand where you are now, where you’re going and what you value most.

Habit 3 - Put First Things First: This is the habit of personal management, which involves organizing and managing time and events. Manage yourself. Organize and execute around priorities.

Habit 4 - Think Win/Win: Win/Win is the habit of interpersonal leadership. Win.win is the attitude of seeking mutual benefit. This thinking begins with a commitment to explore all options until a mutually satisfactory solution is reached, or to make no deal at all.

Habit 5 - Seek First to Understand�Then to be Understood: This is the habit of empathic communication. Understanding builds the skill of empathic listening that inspires openness and trust.

Habit 6 - Synergize: This is the habit of creative cooperation or teamwork. Synergy results from valuing differences by bringing different perspectives together in the spirit of mutual respect.

Habit 7 - Sharpen the Saw: This is the habit of self-renewal. Preserving and enhancing your greatest asset, yourself, by renewing the physical, spiritual, mental and social/emotional dimensions of your nature.
