Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood I’ve had a difficult week, some of my actions and interactions would have been much more effective if the 7 habits were fresh in my mind.ĥ. I read somewhere that the best way to learn is to teach! I’ve also written the blog so I can review it weekly as a personal reminder to apply the habits.
The audio for this book is over 13 hours long! I’ve done my best to summarise the book, so you can quickly understand and apply the principles if you wish. Unlike disruptive marketing strategies and parenting fads, living with fairness, integrity, honesty and human dignity will never go out of trend. What I love about this book is that despite being written 30 years ago, it’s still as relevant today. Principles that give us the security to adapt to change, and the wisdom and power to take advantage of the opportunities that change creates.“ Covey reveals a step by step pathway for living with fairness, integrity, honesty and human dignity. “ In the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, Covey presents a holistic, integrated, principle-centred approach for solving personal and professional problems.
One of the first books I listened to was the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, written and read by Stephen R Covey. So I signed up and started listening to books while in the car, cooking tea, getting ready etc. I actually enjoy the serenity when walking, but it did get me thinking about other ‘dead’ time that I could utilise. A good friend of mine suggested I subscribe to Audible so I could make use of my time walking. I spend a lot of time walking, it clears my mind and helps me to focus on what’s important.
