Steven Covey's Seven Habits of Highly Successful People

 

In this seminal work, Stephen R. Covey presents a holistic, integrated, principle-centered approach for solving personal and professional problems. Covey reveals a step-by-step pathway for living with fairness, integrity, honesty and human dignity―principles that give us the security to adapt to change, and the wisdom and power to take advantage of the opportunities that change creates. The 7 Habits have become so famous because they work.

Make choices and think of the consequences. 

2.  Begin with the End in Mind
Know what you want and how you are going to achieve it. 

3.  Put First Things First

Together we can always accomplish more.
