Page 4: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

HABITSWe first make our habits.Then our habits make us.

Page 5: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

Habits form our characters.

Page 6: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

They constantly express our characters.

Page 7: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

They determine our levels of effectiveness or

ineffectiveness.

Page 8: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles
Page 9: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

Sow a Thought and you reap an Action;

Page 14: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

Your habit plays a part in where you will

ultimately end up (your destiny).

Page 15: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

Cultivate the habits that will bring you to

you want to be.

Page 16: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

And More importantly...

Page 17: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

To become

& you want to be...

Page 18: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

1st, LEARN & understand what makes a habit.

principlesWe control our actions, but the consequences that flow from those actions are controlled by principles.

Page 25: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

the 7 habits are based on principles.

Page 26: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles
Page 27: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

A principle is the actual reality of the way

things are.

Page 28: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

Studies have found that Regardless of peoples’

Page 29: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

There is a consensus that constantly

surrounds them -

Page 30: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

THAT they all share the same fundamental

.

Page 31: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

Values such as:

Page 32: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

These are universal.

Page 33: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

These are principles.

Page 34: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

Every one of the 7 habits represents a principle.

Page 35: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

Are our

&aligned with principles &

the natural laws?

Page 36: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

CHARACTERWhat we are, communicates far more eloquently than anything we say or do.

Based on Techniques

Focuses on how to “Appear to Be…”

Revolves around:

Image Creation Public Relation Communication Management

Based on Principles

Focuses on how to “Actually Be…”

Revolves around:

Integrity Fidelity Compassion Contribution Responsibility Justice Courage

Page 43: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles
Page 44: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

before we focus on techniques or

how to be more effective with others,

Page 45: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

Give our first energies to our own

.

Page 46: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

paradigmAll the significant breakthroughs were break-withs old ways of thinking.

4

Page 47: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

Paradigms are our mental representations

of The reality,

Page 48: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

Our ideas Of the way things are.

Page 49: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

They come fromour brought ups,

Page 50: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

Through social conditionings,

Page 51: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

and from our personal experiences.

Page 52: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles
Page 53: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

Most people’s paradigms are functions of the

.

Page 54: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

They live up to the social mirror that surrounds them...

Page 55: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

To avoid “being labelled” by the masses as otherwise,

Page 56: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

They try to keep up with the expectancies projected by the

social mirror.

Page 57: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

Ergo...

Page 58: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

their paradigms naturally become the functions of

the social mirror.

Page 59: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

All of us think we see the world as

it is.

The truth is we see the world as

we are.

Page 60: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

We see what we seek.

Page 61: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

and it is from what we see,

Page 62: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

How we see it,

Page 63: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

That drivesour attitudes,

Our behaviours.

Page 64: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles
Page 65: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

attitudes and behaviours “flow out” of

how we look at things.

Page 66: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

to better understand the attitudes & behaviours

of people,

Page 67: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

We 1st have to keenly Observe & explore Their paradigms.

Page 68: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

How do you see it?

Page 69: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

How do you see it?

What is your view?

Page 70: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

How do you see it?

What is your view?

What is your opinion?

Page 71: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

How do you see it?

What is your view?

What is your opinion?

What is your frame of reference?

Page 72: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

That’ll help us gain insight into the way

people interpret their reality.

Page 73: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

Knowing where people are coming from,

communications can be more effective.

Page 74: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

Emotionalbank accountYou cannot talk yourself out of the problems you behave yourself into.

Page 75: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

Page 78: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

Discourtesy & Meanness

promises...

Page 80: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

WHEN A PROMISE IS MADE,

Page 81: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

KEEP IT.

Page 82: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

DESPITE OF CHANGES IN CIRCUMSTANCES...

Page 83: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

DESPITE OF Mood change...

Page 84: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

KEEP it.

Page 85: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

If REALLY, the situations changed to a point it becomes

unwise to keep it,

Page 86: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

you have to communicate

.

Page 87: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

Get THE ONES YOU PROMISED to understand

those circumstances.

Page 88: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

that WAY, they will relieve you of it.

When we don’t get what we expect, we become

frustrated.

Page 97: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

frustrated.

We can

and

our expectations.

Page 99: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

By being clear about communicating them.

Page 100: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

Page 125: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles
Page 126: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles
Page 127: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

p = production of desired results

Page 128: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

pc = production capability

Page 129: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

In other words,

Page 130: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

p = Getting what you want

pc = In a way that enables you to get what you want again & again

Page 131: The 7 Highly Effective Habits Foundational Principles

p/pc balance is what we do
