7 Habits of Highly efficient People

A great statement here that I like:

"It is motivation that gets you started, habit is what keeps you going!"

So how can we define habits?




As we grow older and wiser, we also change our outlook in terms of how we perceive our self's and others in terms of dependability.

  • Dependence - the paradigm of you. You take care of me, I blame you...
  • Independence - the paradigm of I. I can do it, I am responsible...
  • Interdependence - the paradigm of we. Together we will succeed...

In order to become more effective we need to balance the production of desired results and our capability of the same.

In effect its all about balance short term gains with long term goals.

We are responsible for our own effectiveness, for our own happiness and ultimately for most of our circumstances...

Pretty much, you are the results of your own actions :)


The 7 habits defined
  • Proactivity
  • Begin with the end in mind
  • First thing first
  • Think Win Win
  • Seek first to understand, then to be understood
  • Synergize
  • Sharpen the saw- become better, keener and more efficient

Have a nice day :)
