There is 7 habits that are explained in the book, be proactive, begin 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. I’ve learned a lot of things from the book like the more you listen the more you gather information to state your own opinion, which i’ve been learned, and make sure to build relationships with everyone so you can gain trust with that person. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens is a good book for people who are in need of help and it can also make a big difference in life if you follow and do what the habits say.

The first habit Sean Convey lists of the seven is “Be Proactive.” This habit made an impact on me because it sends a message that I try to take into account everyday, but haven’t one-hundred percent fulfilled. The habit, “Be Proactive” is important because it says that you are in full control of your life, your decisions and your attitude. A quote that Convey adds to support this message is, “You can not control what happens to you, but you can control how you react.” You choose everyday to be proactive or reactive. Reactive people act solely on impulse, whereas proactive people think before they act, make decisions based on their values, and always find a way to move forward. Habit #1 is important because it teaches readers to take initiative, be proactive rather than reactive, and to not let others

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,

Before you went into detail on each habit, I found it really helpful how you mentioned the 7 habits teens normally follow. By showing us, the readers, the negative habits teens follow on a daily basis and its positive counterpart also allows for better interpretation. This method allowed for me to compare and contrast the two and realize the habits I’m taking part in.

To exist is to live a life without purpose, although to live, it is one of the greatest adventures anyone could experience.

Sean Covey’s seven habits have effected countless lives including mine. Three specific habits prompted me to adjust my life and I have discovered the habits in additional people.

The last three weeks I have learned about three habits, and they are; habit 1 being proactive, habit 2 begin with the end in mind, and lastly, habit 3 first thing's first, I have an so learned how to use them anywhere.lastly, how they can/will improve my life for good and help me through a difficult path.

Habit two is “ Begin with The End in mind ”. I personally think that this is one of the important habits . A quote from the book “Alice’s in the Wonderland” said” Would you tell me please which way I ought to walk from here? That depends a good deal on where you want to get to. The cat said. I don't much care where. Said alice.

Habit 1 : Be Proactive. The Habit of Personal Vision. According to Covey, this habit reflects our innate ability to take charge of our lives. We are not simply products of in-grained stimulus- response reflexes. We have the ability to take charge, plan ahead, and focus our energies on things we can control instead of reacting to or worrying about things over which we have little or no control. This habit allows us to rise above the ebbs and flows of the tides of our day-to-day lives and direct our lives.

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
