The 7 Habits of Highly effective people
A book that focuses on attitudes towards life. Covey highlights 7 ideal habits which will make reaching your goal- whether it is starting a business, being more productive at work, etc- more doable. This book recommends and discusses the 7 ‘ideal’ habits:
2. Begin with the end in mind
3. Put First Things First.
5. First seek to understand, then to be understood.
I hope you’re all keeping safe during these uncertain and difficult times (and staying home if you are lucky enough to be able to do so). If like many others you’re unsure about what to do with all this spare time, it may be a perfect opportunity to reflect on your spending habits. If you feel motivated to do so, read some of the books included today and start to plan for the future when hopefully, life returns to normal. The world screeching to a halt is the perfect opportunity to make personal changes.
