Do you know what are the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People?
**Habit 1: Be Proactive**
You’re in Charge
Proactive people always focus on the things which they can control and not what they can’t. In contrast, reactive people focus on things that they can’t control.
**Habit 2: Begin With the End in Mind**
Have a Plan
Effective people always decide where they want to be in the future. It helps them take the right steps in the present, which aligns with their goals, and hence they increase their probability of success.
**Habit 3: Put First Things First**
Work First, Then Play
This habit simply tells that you have to prioritize your work and do only things which matters, which aligns with your dream.
**Habit 4: Think Win-Win**
Everyone Can Win
The fourth habit says that you should always look for win/win opportunities, which means whenever you work, live, or negotiate with someone; you always try to take approaches that benefits everyone involved in the deal.
**Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood**
Listen Before You Talk
if you focus only on the words, you would understand only 7% of what they are saying because the rest 93% is communicated non-verbally, through tone of voice and body language. So, remain very attentive, understand what the person in front of you is saying, and then speak your point, and it would improve your interpersonal relationships.
**Habit 6: Synergize**
Together Is Better
Synergy is simply defined as the method of working in which two or more people working together produce greater results because of their combined effort than what they could have achieved individually.
**Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw**
Balance Feels Best
Abraham Lincoln said, “Give me six hours to chop down a tree, and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.” This answers everything.
