  4. HABIT 5: 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? What training have you had that enables you to listen so you really, deeply understand another human being? Probably none, right?

    If you're 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're listening, selectively hear only certain parts of the conversation or 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. Do any of the following sound familiar?

    "Oh, I know just how you feel. I felt the same way." "I had that same thing happen to me." "Let me tell you what I did in a similar situation."

    Because you so often listen autobiographically, you tend to respond in one of four ways:
    Evaluating: You judge and then either agree or disagree.
    Probing: You ask questions from your own frame of reference.
    Advising: You give counsel, advice, and solutions to problems.
    Interpreting: You analyze others' motives and behaviors based on your own experiences.

    You might be saying, "Hey, now wait a minute. I'm just trying to relate to the person by drawing on my own experiences. Is that so bad?" In some situations, autobiographical responses may be appropriate, such as when another person specifically asks for help from your point of view or when there is already a very high level of trust in the relationship.

  10. Well, the 7 Habits are what make our life EFFECTIVE and we can do all that we want without buts .. ;)
    - Be Proactive:
    To be responsible is the Most Important Thing In This habit. You have to take responsability for your life.
    - Being with the End in Mind:
    Everyone should have aims and goals in our lives, have dreams and fight for them and for what we want for ourselves.
    - Put First Things First:
    In our lives, our families were paramount, as they are always with us, but before them, is God, who will always be with us, then this will all other things, but we must learn to put the main things first before everything else.
    - Think Win-Win:
    One of the most important, and that is always present in our lives, many of our situations are all about winning and doing everything better than others, but what we know is that not everything in this life is to win, if not, give our best and be satisfied with ourselves and everything we do.
    - Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood:
    When people tell us they want us sinceramenrte should listen, pay attention to know when they will listen to us we really be paying attention.
    - Synergize:
    Working together is how you achieve the best things, work together are the best ways to accomplish things that only an almost impossible.
    - Sharpen the Saw:
    Everyone should constantly renew and strengthen us, learn from our mistakes and analyze what we do to remove our shortcomings and maintain a balance in our lives ... :) <3

  13. I found some good lessons about life, "The Seven Habits" show us the real life problems and it also helps us about ways to solve problems. Sometimes when you don’t know how to act these habits can help you and teach you the correct way, in my case I noticed that I am applying the habit #1 and my life has changed a lot! If all teenagers make use of habits could change the future of the world (=

  14. as the above diagram shows, the habits build upon each other.
    habits 1,2 and 3 deal with sel-mastery. we call it the private victory habits 4,5 and 6 deal with relationships and teamwork.
    we call it the public victory .you have got to get your personal act together before you can be good team player thats why the private victory comes before the public victory. the last habit 7 is the habit of renewal.it feeds all of the other six habits
