you don't decide your future you decide your habits and habits decides your future.

Habit no. 1:

BE PROACTIVE:

Being proactive means thinking  and acting ahead of anticipated events.Not only is it a great method for avoiding more work down the road, it can also be extremely important for averting problems.To be proactive,start taking acting,embracing your responsibility,and controlling your responses.

Habit no. 2:

BEGIN WITH THE END IN MIND:

Begin with the end in mind means to begin each day,task,or project with clear vision of your desired direction and destination,and then continue by flexing your proactive muscles from the 7 habit book.

Habit no. 3:

PUT FIRST THINGS FIRST :

Putting first things first means doing the most important thing in life.It means being clear about your priorities and acting on them.That sounds pretty easy and intuitive,but many people fall into the trap of getting caught up in non-important things.

Habit no. 4:

THINK WIN WIN:

In the long run,if it isn't a win for both of us,we both lose .that's why win-win is the only real alternative in interdependent realities.when one side benefits more than other, that's a win-lose situation.To the winner it might look like success for a while,but in the long run,it  breeds resentment and distrust.

Habit no. 5:

SEEK FIRST TO UNDERSTAND AND THEN TO BE UNDERSTOOD:

If you are like most people,you probably seek first to be understood; you want to get your point across.And in doing so, you may ignore the other person completely,pretend that you are listening,selectively hear only certain parts of the conversation attentively focus on only the words being said,but miss the meaning entirely.so why does this happen? Because most people listen with the intent to reply,not to understand.you listen to yourself as you prepare in your mind what you are going to say,the questions you are going to ask,etc. you filter everything you hear through your life experiences,your frame of reference.you check what you hear against your autobiography and see how it measures up.And consequently,you decide prematurely what the other person means before he/she finishes communicating.

Habit no. 6:

SYNERGY:

Synergy is better than my way or your way.Its our way.synergy is not the same as compromise, one plus one equals one and a half at best.To put it simply,synergy means"two heads are better than one".synergy is the habit of creative cooperation.It is team work,open mindedness, and the adventure of finding new solutions to old problems.But it not just happen on its own.Its a process,people bring all their personal experience and expertise to the table.Together,they can produce far better result that they could individually. synergy lets us discover jointly things we are much less likely to discover by ourselves.It is the greater than the sum of the parts.one plus one equals three,or six,or sixty--you name it.

Habit no. 7:

SHARPEN THE SAW:

Sharpen the Saw. Sharpen the saw means preserving and enhancing the greatest asset you have--you.it means having a balanced program for self-renewal in the four areas of your life: physical,social/emotional,mental,and spiritual.
