Who Cares?
This guy has basically written a book about 7 habits that humans SHOULD have, but MANY do not because of pure laziness and disrespect for the human race.
“We are not animals. We are not a product of what has happened to us in our past. We have the power of choice.”
“We are not human beings on a spiritual journey. We are spiritual beings on a human journey.”

Begin with the End in Mind
What do you want to be when you grow
up?
That question may seem silly, but think about it for a moment: Are you – right now – on the right path to becoming who you want to be, what you dreamed you'd be, doing what you always wanted to do?
Be honest.

Put First Things First
To live a more balanced life, you have to recognize that not doing everything that comes along is okay. There's NO need to over work yourself. All it takes is realizing that it's all right to say NO when necessary and then focus on your HIGHEST priorities.
Put First Things First
Important Stuff First
Big Things
Think Win-Win
Everyone Can Win!
Thumb War! I want to know who the winner was, and how
many times he/she won!
Think Win-Win
Win-win is a frame of mind and heart.
We make decisions with other people that help us ALL.
Seek First to Understand,then to be Understood Communication is the most important
skill in life. You spend years learning how to read and write, and years learning how to speak.
But what about listening?
Seek First to Understand,then to be Understood Listen
Put Yourself in Others’ Shoes “The only thing that can save us now is
sensitivity and compassion.” – Tie My Hands, Lil Wayne
We have 2 ears and 1 mouth. We should listen TWICE as much.
Synergize
Valuing differences is what really drives synergy.
Do you truly value the emotional, psychological, and cultural differences among people?
Or do you wish everyone would just agree with you?
(One word: BORING!)
Differences should be seen as strengths, not weaknesses. They add zest to life!
