The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People: Powerful
Lessons in Personal Change
— by Stephen R. Covey
The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People: Powerful
Lessons in Personal Change was a groundbreaker
when it was first published in 1990, and it continues
to be a business bestseller with more than 10
million copies sold. Stephen Covey, an internationally
respected leadership authority, realizes that
true success encompasses a balance of personal
and professional effectiveness, so this book is
a manual for performing better in both arenas.
His anecdotes are as frequently from family situations
as from business challenges.
Before you can adopt the seven habits, you'll
need to accomplish what Covey calls a "paradigm
shift" -- a change in perception and interpretation
of how the world works. Covey takes you through
this change, which affects how you perceive and
act regarding productivity, time management, positive
thinking, developing your "proactive muscles"
(acting with initiative rather than reacting),
and much more.
This isn't a quick-tips-start-tomorrow kind of
book. The concepts are sometimes intricate, and
you'll want to study this book, not skim it. When
you finish, you'll probably have Post-it notes
or hand-written annotations in every chapter,
and you'll feel like you've taken a powerful seminar
by Covey.
