7 Habits of Highly Effective People
July 20, 2008 By
ShareI’ve been rereading this book by Stephen Covey, the first time I read it I think I was only around twelve years old! I really didn’t ‘get it’ then, but it shows how long I’ve been into reading Personal Development books! Anyway, I started reading it again recently, and have set myself a “Challenge” to [...]
All the best Mel! FWIW, I don’t think whining and complaining is easier… it only *feels* like its easier because that is the habit that you have been most exposed to. One day, you will probably look back and realise that being proactive is actually easier because you have built up your strength from within and people are attracted to that and will want to help you.
I know what you mean- I read the 7 Habits for highly effective teenagers when I was 14 but I recently went back and read the original version- and now I am actively trying to apply them to my lives. Also, I don’t know if you have heard this but Stephen Covey just launched an online community last week (www.stephencovey.com). It’s worth checking out- especially if you are reading 7 habits. It’s meant to go alongside the book to help implement principles and provide a support group and to track your goals. And it’s fun! Anyways you should check it out!
I will definitely check this book out. Good luck with your challenge!
