7 Habits Research

Over the summer, I read a book titled, The Seven Habits of Highly Effective Teens by Sean Convey. The seven habits described in this book were being proactive, Beginning with the end in mind, put first things first, think win-win, seek first to understand, then to be understood; synergize, and sharpen the saw. The first habit Being proactive means not to make choices on impulse. it means to evaluate the situation before making a desicion. for example, two years ago when i had friends that talked behind my back i just moved on and found better friends rather than be mean to them or excluding them out of my way. The second habit Beginning with the end in mind means to think ahead at what your goals are and start working towards them. My goal for the eight grade year was to recieve a 95% or higher score in all of my classes. in order to realize this goal i worked hard through the year on assignments and and sometimes did more than what was expected of me during projects. in the end, though,

concentration I will be able to conquer this problem. My second habit is my constantly being distracted when I am learning. Whenever I am in class, I constantly go into another world and I phase out. But this problem is due to my ADHD and it took doctors a while to come up with this answer.

Habit 2:Begin with the End in Mind was probably the habit that hit home most for me. Like most teens I was struggling with my priorities. I have to

To begin this lesson, I will have the students complete a self-awareness survey to assess their prior knowledge and understanding of the habits we will be exploring. Once the survey is complete, I will provide an overview of the lesson. I will explain that we will be using the book 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens by Sean Covey to examine healthy, successful habits and to compare those to their own habits. I will explain that the goal is to give the students an opportunity to effectively improve emotional, mental, and physical habits.

The habit, my best self would have is not relying on energy drinks and having good time management skills. It's difficult for me to give up on drinking energy drinks because I started since elementary school and it worsened once I got to middle school. I cut back to one a day and that's still a lot of caffeine. I stopped briefly this past summer because I didn't have a reason to drink it, but now that college has started, I've been relying on it more than ever. To acquire this habit of not relying on energy drinks, I should gradually decrease my intake. As for having good time management skills, I don't have good time management skills because I tend to forget things I need to do, or I procrastinate. I used a planner to help plan my day, but

The first habit “believe you can do it” is something I really can learn from. I tend to not always believe in the possibilities. If it cannot be achieved right now, then I usually don’t

Habit 1 is being proactive. Being proactive means to choose the better path and helps with your personal bank account or PBA. In the 7 habits of highly affected teens, it shows reactive and proactive reactions. Some reactive reactions are, "going into deep depression, deciding their a two faced lair and exclude them from any activities. However here are some proactive reactions, forgiving them, sharing how you feel about the lie and realizing that they have a weakness just like you do" ( covey 58 ). "Proactive, the definition is to control situations by causing things to happen rather than waiting to respond after things happen", from eatyourcareer.com.

The book “Mini habits: Smaller habits, Bigger results” written by Stephen Guise is one of the most fascinating and moving book every student should possess. The book studies one of the issues that face everyone. The book is interesting and informative in my opinion and it provided clear outlines on how one small change can create a big effect. I personally found it useful and applicable to my life, about how good habits could be started through a small change while giving many different results. I often wonder why sometimes my habits couldn’t be formed even though I tried many ways. I finally found the answer in this book because “the mini habit idea shades lighter onto how to grow in any sphere of life” (Guise, 2013. The book is also important

To start off, I would recommend the 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens to all teenagers because it is relatable. First, I believe this book is very relatable because it discusses the 7 highly effective habits that all teens experience. In my opinion, the most relatable habit was habit 1; React. This habit explains how you “blame all your problems on your parents, family, and friends. If someone yells, you yell back” (Habit 1) I could relate to this because I usually blame all my problems on my family and friends. Also, when I am arguing with someone, I would always want the last word because I felt I was correct. However, I did learn that you should have self-control and place yourself in other people shoes. You should look at the

This recommendation came in to my mind after reading the second habit: Begin With the End in Mind. This habit taught me how to live with a purpose. It is based on the principle that things need to be created mentally before they are physically created. For example, a plane is first created in someone’s mind before it is actually built. Effective people determine their own futures. First, they mentally plan it according to their values and principles. Second, they physically create it through their positive actions and behaviors. During my college life, I have always had busy weeks in which I had to deal with lots of exams, home woks, quizzes, and projects. In such weeks, I tend to spend all my time only doing my school responsibilities. However, as Stephen Covey says in the second habit, “most people on their death beds don’t wish they had spent more time at the office!” By the end of each semester, I see myself getting good grades but still not satisfied because deep in my
