Seven Habits Of Highly Effective People: Powerful Lessons in Personal Change

by Stephen R. Covey

Simon & Schuster | August 15, 1989 | Hardcover

"The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People," answers the need in the individual to overcome personal chaos. It boldly defines seven habits that act on each other to propel an individual from a negative co-dependence, to dependence, to independence, & finally to the ideal, interdependence. The first three habits develop a private victory of independence. The next three habits create an environment of interdependence (a public victory). The seventh habit teaches balanced renewal of the human psyche & body which creates the ideal of optimal synergy. This book fills in the "missing link" in the Recovery Movement. It can literally lift a person up & out of a miserable life style. Principles of balanced self-renewal are explained in clear & concise detail. "The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People", is preparing the way for Dr. Covey's new book, "The Fire Within". This book teaches people how to live, to love, to learn & leave a legacy. It promises to inspire in uncharted areas never before explored. To order the hardcover, phone 1-800-331-7716, or write to Covey Leadership Center, 3507 N. University, Suite 100, Provo, Utah 84604.

    Inspiring and In Depth

    Covey touches on topics from running a business, improving a business to teaching children and building a strong family. His lessons can be tailored for many situations. This one is a double reader-at least, to really get what he is saying ingrained into you head. Turn it into a habit!

    If ever someone has to read one book only in their lifetime to turn it around in a very positive way, this is the book to read. It touches every aspect of one's life by helping to understand the why are we like we are. It does not only make you understand, but it gives you definite and comprensive ways of dealing with one's life. This book helps you get in touch with your inner self.
