The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen Covey

Here are seven takeaways that Thomas Buck (Principal of MIG), found to be most helpful.

• Be proactive: Take responsibility for your life and focus on what you can control. Don't wait for things to happen to you, take initiative and create the life you want.

• Begin with the end in mind: Start with a clear vision of your goals and objectives. This will help you to stay focused and prioritize your activities based on what is most important.

• Put first things first: Organize and manage your time effectively by focusing on the most important tasks first. This habit is all about being efficient and productive with your time.

• Think win-win: Build positive relationships by looking for mutual benefit in all interactions. This habit promotes collaboration and cooperation rather than competition.

• Seek first to understand, then to be understood: Listen empathically and seek to understand the perspective of others before sharing your own. This habit promotes effective communication and helps to build trust.

• Synergize: Work with others to achieve goals that cannot be achieved alone

• Sharpen the saw: Take time to maintain and improve your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
