The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People is one of the phenomenal books that changed people's lives for the better. The book sold over 25 million copies, and if this were to be compared to a county, it means the entire population of Lagos, Nigeria would have bought it.
These are the vital nuggets from the book:
“Be Proactive: Take responsibility for your life; you are in control of your actions and reactions”
“Begin with the End in Mind: Clarify your values and set clear goals to align your actions with your principles”
“Put First Things First: Prioritize important, not just urgent tasks. Focus on what truly matters”
“Think Win-Win: seek mutual benefit in relationships and collaborations. A win for others is a win for you”
“Seek First to Understand, then to be Understood; Listen actively and empathetically before expressing your thoughts. Communication is a two ways street”
The book is voluminous and you may not have the opportunity to read it all, you can download my 3 pages summary of the book via:
