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,
This generation is connected by their shared culture of studying, working, writing and interacting similarly, and conducting their social interactions and civic activities through a digital medium.
Habit 2 - Begin with the end in Mind, is a good Habit and really helps you get to your goal. Well, habit 2 is teaching you how to get make one like where you want to do in life, what your dreams, and what do you want to do when you become an adult. You need to set a goal in your life and how to get there and if not you might just be next person on the streets
The habit “ Putting First Things First” relates to my life because I tend to be a procrastinator, and a slacker. Occasionally, I will say “yes” to people that want to hang out, or go somewhere, and that one word has been making me hold off important work. Planning out my daily goals, and stay organized will make me a prioritizer. Habit three is important to my life , because I procrastinate, spend time with others rather than doing school work, and it points out the key routines that will help me stay up to date on school work throughout year.
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
Reflecting on the program and the results of the Seven Habits Profile, I recognize my own
Change—it’s something everyone hates and even more so when it affects a person’s way of life or career, and despite the resistance, things will always change.
One of the highly effective habits that I follow is Habit 1 Be Proactive. Some examples that I do to show I'm proactive are, I'm a responsible person, I care about my work, I always keep it neat and organized and I hand in my work on time without excuses. I do something without being asked such as, if a teacher is talking to another teacher and everyone is being loud and talking, I do something quietly until the teacher comes back. I'm constantly in a good mood, I have a good attitude towards everyone and I have good manners for instances, if someone is talking I respectfully listen without interrupting. The last thing I follow in habit 1 is that I don't blame others, if I did something wrong, I will admit that I did it, it was an accident and apologize for my mistake.
Habit 3 is put first things first this is very important for teens because it teaches
The habits I’d like to improve upon are being happy, being more efficient with time management, exercise more, eat healthier, become more focused on school work and to chose “real” friends instead of “fake” ones.
The first habit is “Being Proactive”. Being proactive means to control a situation and to take responsibility for yourself meaning that you in order to start becoming a highly effective teen, then you must take ownership for what you have caused conflict between you and or someone else. You can’t blame someone else for your own actions. In fact, it is better to be proactive and say the right thing a take ownership for the problem you cause and don’t blame others. I will use this habit in my life by using this habit mostly towards my family. Sean Covey wrote in habit one stating that you can become a “Change Agent” meaning that you alone can influence other people and help their future as well as yours. I can try to lose my bad habits and gain the better habits to help me in my life. This habit is important and necessary
Three habits I would like to change this year are to be more studious than my previous middle school years, finish homework assignments on the day it's assigned rather than the day it is due, and to work even harder for my future AP/Honors classes and college years. To improve my behavior and increase my academic success, I am going to study and finish my assignments outside of school/home and set out to finish them in places like libraries and cafes. I am also going to manage my time schedule properly and set my priorities (homework/studying) before going on my phone or watching movies on my Mac. Another way to achieve these goals is to block myself from all distractions such as music, TV, and food. Although these changes are going to take
In habit 3 is about put fun thing first before important things, like when there is a test is coming next week you can do whatever you like and relax but if the test is coming in 3 or 4 days study. I do my homework,and study on time,for example when the test is coming up on 3 or 4 days I study.The book also talks about get your confort zone out and I got my confort out when my friends are here.Also my family and I is going great we always make promises but sometimes break them..Like sometimes when I promise something When I promise to get straight A’s I break their promise. The 4 habit is about life is a competition so think win-win because work as a team or you had to feel the win-win attitude.I haven’t think about win-win attitude Spacing out that is always my problem cause when I’m reading a good book I space out all of sudden. I get mad at myself I had to start over and even I like the book so much or maybe in a conversation but is my fault I let myself space out, even people gets mad at me.Probing is hardest to talk about your emotions that you don’t want to talk about but I still talk about my feeling and
In conclusion, it was great to see my “the beliefs, values, and principles”, my philosophy, align up with two very respectable military leaders that I highly regard. As I prepare for command, I have identify strengths and weakness that I will capitalize and improvements upon. Strengths include, Willpower (I’m self driven), I am a team developer, I like to surround myself with wise mentors and advisors, and I like to empower my young leaders. Weakness on the other hand; I scrutinized myself way too hard. I don’t always take “constructive criticism”. I like “feedback”, but unfortunately, “constructive criticism” entails unprofessional tune and delivery – and I have a short fuse. I have had to learn the hard way to control my frustration and counter-delivery.
