7 habits of highly effective people.

Habit 1: Be Proactive

"Habit 1 is the key to unlocking all the other habits and that's why it comes first. It says, "I am the captain of my life. I can choose my attitude. I'm responsible for my own happiness or unhappiness. I am in the driver's seat of my destiny, not just a passenger."

Being proactive is very important. To be proactive will come in handy in your future. your future will always revolve around being proactive because to be proactive means to basically be successful. if you are proactive you do not waste any time what so ever so it is important to get all of your work done ahead of time, instead of leaving everything last minute and stressing. 

Habit 2: Begin with the End in Mind

"Control your own destiny or someone else will." (Jack Welch)

To begin with the end in your mind simply means to think before you act. If you think before you act you know what the outcome of your actions will be so you will think twice about doing it. I myself always begin with the end in mind because i do not want to put myself in situations that are difficult to get out of in the future. i also dont take actions that will jepardize my reputation or future in any way. That is why it is important to begin with the end in mind.

Habit 3: Put First Things First

"Organize and execute around priorities." 

TO PUT FIRST THINGS FIRST MEANS TO PUT THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS AHEAD OF ALL THE OTHERS. BASICALLY IT MEANS TO PRIORITIZE. PRIORITIZING IS VERY IMPORTANT, ESPECIALLY IN ADULTHOOD BECAUSE WHEN RESPONSIBILITY IS INVOLVED EVERYTHING BECOMES A LOT HARDER. IT ALSO MEANS TO PUT EVERYTHING YO WANT TO ACCOMPLISH ABOVE OTHER THINGS. GET RID OF ALL THE NEGATIVITY AND FOCUS ON NOTHING BUT POSITIVE THOUGHTS AND ACCOMPLISHING YOUR GOALS IN THE LONG RUN. FOCUS ON WHAT WILL MAKE YOU THE MOST HAPPY. 

Habit 4: Think Win-Win

"Think win-win or no deal."

when you think win win is that you are making the best out every outcome. Even when something doesn't turn out the way you want it to there is always a positive side to everything.
Thinking win win is beneficial to many individuals because it gives a lot of people the power to be happy with all outcomes no matter what. 

Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, then to be Understood

"Diagnose before you prescribe."

Diagnose before you prescribe means a lot. This is a very important habit to live by. this means to always think before acting. Never do anything carelessly because you never know how it may affect you in the near future. taking careless actions are what most likely will lead you to being unhappy later on in life. i always manage to think before acting thankfully because i do not want my future to be affected in any way what so ever. 

Habit 6:  Synergize

"The whole is greater than the sum of its parts (1+1=3)"

To synergize is an extremely good habit to use. To synergize means to have a habit of creative cooperation. Having creative cooperation will clearly come in handy during all sorts of situations when you're older. This is important because there is no limit when it comes to synergizing. Your mind can do what ever it wants and it is an even better aspect because you get to share it with others by flowingly cooperating with one another. Synergizing doesn't just occur. There is a certain process you will need to go through so that you can get to the synergize stage. 

Habit 7:  Sharpen the Saw
Four Dimensions of Self-Renewal: Physical, Mental, Spiritual, Social/Emotional

To sharpen the saw means to always be on point. Sharpening the saw is really important because you always need to be updated. you must always have a sharp mind and always be on task with everything that you do. The physical point means to exercise and stay healthy to always feel good physically with a a good self esteem. Mentally you must always sharpen the saw because it means that you should never get lost in your mentality. Your mentality should always be open minded and free. Spiritually you must sharpen the saw by always be willing to learning new things. Always be on the right path spiritually to live a good beautiful life. Socially and emotionally you should always sharpen the saw by making new friends with different people to be polite. Emotionally you sharpen the saw by venting to others on how you feel so that you dont feel alone and sad ever.
