Habit 1: Be Proactive
Habit 2: Begin with the End in Mind
"Control your own destiny or someone else will." It is about connecting to your own uniqueness. To apply habit 2 into your life you can start a goal or personal mission statement in order to develop your plan. While you are doing your plan make sure you think about the positive and negative consequences of your actions before you act, make sure you are prepared at all times, think about the way your choices will help or affect your future.
Habit 3: Put First Things First
"Organize and execute around priorities." First things first is the exercise of independent will to create a life congruent with your values, goals and mission. The fourth human endowment, Independent Will, is the ability to make decisions and choices and act upon them. Integrity is our ability to make and keep commitments to ourselves. Management involves developing the specific application of the ideas. We should lead from the right brain creatively and manage from the left brain analytically. Time management is an essential skill for personal management. The essence of time management is to organize and execute around priorities. Methods of time management have developed in these stages: notes and checklists recognizing multiple demands on our time; calendars and appointment books scheduling events and activities; prioritizing, clarifying values integrating our daily planning with goal setting. I plan to add this habit into my life by prioritizing important stuff that needs to be done, and not stuff that is for my own entertainment.
Habit 4: Think Win-Win
"Think win-win or no deal." Positive thoughts will help you be successful in life and it will let you know that you are going to achieve all those goals you have set for yourself. If everyone you know is giving you a hard time then ignore them. Don't let their negative comments affect your way of living and succeeding. Just always keep in mind that you can do it or you are going to make it. That will help you stay confident with your school work by just repeating to yourself those words. In the end you will only have yourself and your happiness. You are the only one that knows what you want to do and how you are going to achieve that.
Habit 5: Seek First To Understand, Then To Be Understood
"Diagnose before you prescribe."If you are the one playing mechanic when someone brings a problem to you; the only really good way to insure that they will trust you and what you prescribe as a solution for them to work with is through your practice of empathetic listening. We should also be empathetic listeners and putting ourselves in others people's shoes before judging the situation.
Habit 6: Synergize
"The whole is greater than the sum of its parts (1+1=3)"
Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw
