The Seven Habits Profile

When members in the team brainstorm ideas, they will ask a lot of questions pertaining to the problem at hand and do a lot of research on it. They will also break themselves up into smaller, more workable groups to increase efficiency. In addition, the members do not just limit themselves to finding information online, but they also find out firsthand about the problem from the people who are affected by it. During their firsthand experience, they are very observant and enthusiastic in gaining knowledge from the people affected. Then, they will demonstrate, communicate and share everything that they’ve learned with the other groups. There is focused chaos during the sharing and the members are all very lively, flexible, and open. All ideas are accepted, and no idea is “bad”, no matter how crazy it is. After much sharing, the team will narrow down ideas by voting for them, and the ideas with majority of the votes will be shortlisted. When the members are tired after the brainstorming session, they will call it a day and end off on a positive note.

In Charles Duhigg’s book The Power of Habit, he asserts that individual habits can be understood and changed. Duhigg backs this claim with a description of the so-called habit loop which is composed of a cue, routine, and reward, pointing out the cues start habits and rewards signal the brain to remember routines. The author's purpose is to give information about habits in order to change them for the better. With Duhigg’s insight about habits, students can stop the bad habit of procrastination, the habit of delaying assignments until the last minutes. In particular, students should “recognize which craving is the driving behavior” of procrastination and change it as a first step to stop (50).

Chapter one, “The Habit Loop: How Habits Work”, discusses the journey of a seventy-one-year-old man who was diagnosed with amnesia after suffering brain damage to his medial temporal lobe due a viral infection named viral encephalitis. Although Eugene suffered from amnesia for fifteen years, he was still able to form habits and follow routines without any knowledge of it happening. After spending the past three decades studying the neuroanatomy of memory, the scientist, Larry Squire began focusing on Eugene to figure out how he could create habit loops without having any recollection of recent memories of his daily life. Surely, Squire was baffled when he had heard of Eugene’s unique condition because how could someone develop a cue and

How much do habits govern over our lives? “The Habit Loop” by Paul Minors, sets out to inform us about the shocking degree of control habits have in our brains. In the first chapter, Minors starts by developing a personal narrative about Eugene Pauly. Pauly was diagnosed with “viral encephalitis,” which damaged his ability to remember short term memories.

Stephen R. Covey first wrote the self-help book entitled, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, this book has since opened the eyes and hearts to millions of people throughout the world.

Ralph Keeney of Duke University discusses in this broadcast the benefits of doing a Value focused Brainstorming. In almost any field of work, there is some type of brainstorming that needs to be done in order to make a decision. Ralph Keeney has brought up a new type of way in doing brainstorming. His study shows two properties/guidelines in doing a value focused session. The first is that each person is given no additional guidance so they can have their own creative thoughts. The second, is that no matter how many people are teaming up for to brainstorm, each individual needs to do some brainstorming on their own without a group.

The Law of Attraction states that one sends out signals into the universe through predominant thoughts and feelings. Accordingly, the universe reciprocates whatever the individual is fixated upon, positive or negative. In another article dealing with the Law, I established that the Law of Attraction will work with any system of faith, or lack there of. In this lesson, we will discuss another fundamental aspect of the Law of Attraction; once the individual begins to apply the law's teachings, said individual must anticipate resistance.

The seven deadly sins, were originally; Envy, Sloth, Wrath, Avarice, Gluttony, Lust, and Pride . Today, I eminently believe that all of these sins are still highly relatable to society, I just do not think that many of them would be considered “deadly” in this day and age.

I can definitely relate to Patsy, about the bad habits. If I could remember how I acted as a child, then I would try to work towards that. I feel like I started my habits at a very young age because, my past was difficult and I knew it was wrong with what I went through. I feel like I can tell people what I went through as a kid which, I was sexually abused. But I know I have to drop it and move forward because I feel like it is holding me back. I started to close off my happiness towards the males in my family. I noticed that the people who hurt me, did not bother me anymore because my goal was to not be around them anymore. That is when I started to feel comfortable with not talking to people about how I was feeling because I felt embarrassed or ashamed. My bad habits started to kick in with me being shy, not confident, not talking to boys, and trying to show I was happy. I stay quiet because I feel safe and nobody will judge me on my voice or what I have to say or I have nothing to say. With that, I do not know why my mouth is always closed. A lot of people say I look mad or sad which I can understand but I cannot help it because its’ been a habit ever since I was able to understand my feelings. Now that I am talking about all these habits, I wish we did not learn them because, they are hard to let go.
