The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, by Stephen Covey became a blueprint for personal development when it was published in 1989 First of all, Covey defined habits as the intersection of knowledge, skill, and desire: Knowledge is the theoretical paradigm, the what to do and why. Skill is the how to do. And finally, desire is the motivation, the want to do. Now, a paradigm is a framework containing the basic assumptions, ways of thinking, and methodology that are commonly accepted by members
As stated previously, I would like to improve my score in the “Putting First Things First” category of the Seven Habits Profile. It opened my eyes to see how much time am not spending on long-term life goals. I would love to look back on each week and see that I spent a considerable amount of time focusing on what was important. To acquire this habit of putting things first, I will sit down first thing on Monday morning for three weeks and create two goals I would like to accomplish that week (goals
The Seven Habits profile provided some helpful insight into my personal habits and how they affect my leadership style.

After completing the Seven Habits Profile, it helped me discover my strong traits as well as some traits I need improvement on to help me become a well-rounded leader. In the Seven Habits Profile I had to answer statements from nine categories. I will be discussing my top three categories (Emotional Bank Account, Think Win Win, and Synergize) as well as my bottom three (Life Balance, Seek First to Understand, and Sharpen the Saw).

completing the Seven Habits Profile assessment, I can identify with what type of leader I am. I closely analyzed the assessment and realized that although the overall evaluation was rather good, there is some room for improvement. It can get quite difficult to self-analyze without being bias.
