7 Habits of Highly Effective

7 Habits of Highly Effective“Welcome to this <<Seven Habits of Highly Effective Peopl e>> of Dr. Stephen R. Covey. In this audio program, Stephen shows that the effective of ourselves and with others is bas ed on our individual character and not on quick-fix formulas or manipulate techniques. He also teaches us that we are not sol ely the product of our conditions or operating or ge netic makeup,but the essential elements in l ong-term effectiveness, our habits, can be l earned and d eep ly internalized. Stephen begins by id entifying specific exampl es of results you can expect from living and applying the seven habits and shares how to get most out of this progra m. ”Question 1：What d etermines our influence power?

I woul d to give you an id ea what you can expec t, and also what you shoul d to meet these expectations. This is a life changing program. I am not using hyperply, I am not trying to exaggerating for the effects. There is absolute g uarantee if you will understand these habits, teach them to other peopl e, and l earn them well, and then apply, live them unstill they become part of your nature, it will change you r life in a very fundamental way, for good in these areas:“One, improved self-confid ence, self-esteem. That will come largely out of a sense of bett er self-control. Your are not victimized, your are not been controll ed by circumstances, yo u are in control.”Self-confid ence is obtained by the experience of being success.“Two, improve the relationships. Many peopl e have relationships that are d eteriorating, t hey are broken or they are breaking. It maybe with their l oved ones at home, it maybe i n their businesses. To significantly improve the quality of our relationships is one of themajor expectations. You can expect it. It will happen.”Relationship is d etermined by how d o you react，mentally and behaviorally, to the world. The worl d will respond to you in the way you respond to them.Change yourself is easier than changing the word.“Those first two expectations are very related to each other. The higher your self-confid e nce is, the more you will respect others, and work well with them, the l ess their weaknes ses will be empowered by your d epending upon them, relating to these weaknesses. Nev er buil d your emotional life on the weakness of other peopl e, by d oing so, you empower t heir weakness to control you, you magnify them, your strengthen them, you enlarge the m.”You can swim in either the sweet sea or bitter sea.Third, the capacity to influence others will be significantly enhanced. To motivated other s. How d o you like to see your kids d o their jobs cheerfully without been remind ed. How d o you like to see your employees, or other of your working associates, willing send your needs, respond to it, cooperate, creatively solve problem.The power of making the worl d the way you like.The forth areas of expectation, is the spirit of adventure and creativity, enjoy and zest, ex citement and happiness. The spirit of seizing new opportunities, d oing new things, of gr owth, of l earning, these things are very very exciting. “The venture of changing yourself and changing the worl d.These are the four basic areas I think you can expect dramatic, even in some cases, revol utionary results. This is not a quick-fix program. It is not based upon some technique, or some instinct revolution. It's an evolution; you have to pay the price.The price basically involves these things: work very diligently to und erstand, l earn, in oth er words. Work with your mind to think d eeply in sustained ways about this material. T wo, teach it to other peopl e. Shortly after you learn this material, teach it. By shortly I m ean within 24 to 48 hours. Your simply will l earn better when you teach. All of us have t hat experience. Because your whol e sense of responsibility is significantly increased. Yo u know that you are expected to teach someone else to another group the same material you are l earning. It will give you a sense of commitment to the material, simply becauseyou are making a statement when you teach this material. It socially commits you. That is powerfully reinforcing to your own motivation to live the material, to live the principl e s, to cultivate the habits.I encourage a commitment to teach, and think right now who are you going to teach and when. Put it on your calendar; put it in your schedul e. Literally plan to teach it. I woul d e ncourage two times. Once to your l oved ones, and once to your working associates. To o thers you know who woul d have interests, and you like to share this material with, you c are about, peopl e you like. But the most important activity, of course, is the d oing, the ap plying, the living. Whenever we are enlightening about the correct principl e, it is coming upon us to live it. That is the only bases on which we can receive further und erstanding of other principl es, higher principl es. That is a test of our integrity. Integrity basically is the value we place upon ourselves. That's a test of our self-discipline.So those are the three basic activities: l earning, teaching, d oing or live, applying the mate rial. If you d o those three things, these materials will become part of the way you think. To use the computer metaphor, they will become the part of the software of your head. A nd little by little, you will find the material will become more and more yours, d eeply inte rnalized and will effect all those other areas I identified upfront, that you will expect to h ave significant even dramatic kinds of improvements in, self respects, self confid ents, imp roved relationship with others, improved capacity to motivate to influence, and a whol e n ew l evel of zest, excitement, adventure, and joy, and happiness, and creativity in your life.【Levels of processing】To see and to hearTo knowTo und erstandTo useTo teach[GPA System-Behavior Mod el] System Behavior Chain: Goal ->Plan->Execution (GPA) Goal:Value system: d etermine what is important and urgent, all ocate your resource accordingly.The thing seizes your attention is becoming a goal.Life if composed goals.Goal structures.Desires: Maslow triangl eLife Object and its mil estonesMost of us are a mix of all abovePowerful structure: Cl ear objects and mil estones and suppressed d esires Power of powerful structure: synch all your resource and actions Plan:Resource preparingObjects: Peopl eComputing power:MoneyAlgorithm: Method and toolData:MaterialsLevel of Planning: By l evels of uncertaintyExecutabl e plan: l evels of efficiencyProgramming efficiencyEfficiency of planImpact on things and impact on peopl eAttention and Memory effectsAttention managementMemory managementLearning managementThinking managementLife managementSemi-executabl e plan:Bootstrapping plan: (摸石头过河)Do the best, l eave others to the processResearch before planningMental d ebuggingAction：Power of thinking and actionImportance of Action: The impact of thoughts are realized by actions Goal oriented action: actions not l ead to goal is meaningl ess Feedback, adjustment and l earning【Our Impact on the Worl d】Short effectMid dl e effectLong-term effect【Sacrifice short-term for the l ong-term】Physical creation foll ows the mental creationsDon’t tie yourself to your history; tie yourself to your potential.。
