7 HABITS OF HIGHLY EFFECTIVE PEOPLE:

1. BE PROACTIVE.

2. BEGIN WITH THE END IN MIND.

3. PUT FIRST THINGS FIRST.

4. THINK WIN-WIN.

5. SEEK FIRST TO UNDERSTAND, THEN TO BE UNDERSTOOD.

6. SYNERGIZE.

7. SHARPEN THE SAW.

 Before I Begin, I want you to remember, "Be The Change You Wish To See In The World". Because when it comes to change, "EVERYONE LIKE TO SEE IT BUT VERY FEW WILL ADAPT IT".  What do you think a Habit is? Do you know? Many of the greatest leaders, BusinessMagnets, Richest Ones, Innovators, Scientists, Philosophers, Famous Guru's and Monks are the people who possess "Habits" in their day-to-day living! A Habit is a combination, a mixture, an intersection of  KNOWLEDGE, SKILL & DESIRE. Knowledge- what to do and why. Skill- how to do. Desire- want to do it. It all should come from instinct motivation(from inner self) to take it into action, to take care of our own minds first before we try to judge or blame or mistaken someone.


In Habit 1 Steven Covey explains things like Production Capability(PC), Differences between Circle of Concern(COC) and Circle of Influence(COI), Proactiveness and Reactiveness, Paradigm Shifts, Stimulus and Response, Initiative taking, Listening to our language, Making and Keeping Commitments, Inside-Out Approach, by giving the examples from different areas of his life. They are all related to a single concept which is to Be Proactive. It is like planning things ahead, seeing opportunities in every area of the life we are living to develop ourselves every single hour. He explains the importance of seeing the World as it is, not as we are. I don't like to say the things in detail here as it violates the copyrights. It's like when we like someone to read the book, we need to leave their minds with questions to think it of, then it works in their minds to go grab the book and finish it off. And he gives his clear cut explanation of Independence, Dependence, and Interdependence.
 NOTE: Reading this book once brings only 5% of the nourishment to your brains and using it as a workbook can make you what you really want to become. 
In Habit 2, Writer makes you to visualize the things which you might not have thought. Power of Affirmations, Visualization, Imagination, Conscience, Left Brain & Right brain are so clearly explained. The impact of having personal mission statements for Organizations, Families and individuals will help you to change yourself by inside out approach. And Centers in Circle of Influence are clearly shown. The importance of Leadership and Management was well-defined. 9 different centers such as Spouse Centered, Family Centered, Friend Centered, Enemy Centered, Self-Centered, Possession Centered, Wealth Centered, Church Centered and Pleasure Centered are explained based on 4 pillars Security, Guidance, Wisdom and Power of an Individual. 
He finally concludes it by explaining the importance of being a Principle  Centered person to lead life with Principles by being proactive rather than reactive individuals. 
Thinking differently, acting differently based on our own scripted living rather than relying on others makes us what we truly want to become.

It was a dark night and the lightning, the thunder, the hailstorm and highspeed windblown in the streets of Kohinoor(an imaginary city). All the people were in a hurry, running towards their shelters, as it was a sudden cyclone which hit Kohinoor, the city far away from the sea level for the first time in its history. Particularly the employees, the youth(students), Industrialists, Scientists along with their families live there. Mostly they have laboratories, Industries(selling products) on wholesale, Universities and skyscrapers will mesmerise your hearts and the digital homes will make you digitalised as if, you can't stay without the high-quality technology involvement, once you get habituated to this city culture.                 But it all gone in the rain within minutes which left their lives insane, many people flew away with the wind & some lost their lives, nearly 3\4th of the city population decreased after this cyclone. As imagin...

"WE ARE THE MAKERS OF OUR DESTINY  "    I know that all of us are familiar with this point, but still, I wanna share this one with you. Once I read a book written which includes a few things to inspire us. In this life every one of us wants to be successful, right? Really, good! I'm not going in depths of the book now but sharing with you two things right now  These are - 1#  We are responsible for what we are & whatever we wish ourselves to be, we have the power to make ourselves.If what we are now has been the result of our past actions, it certainly follows, that whatever we wish to be in future can be produced by our present actions; so we have to know how to act.  2#  Don't fly away from the wheels of the world-machine but stand inside it &learn the secret of work.Through proper work is done inside, it is also possible to come out.  I think you got a point here to know why I have included this two points out of many thing...

A gloomy whatsapp status

Being social u say!! Do you know what it takes to be social? Did u ever give it a thought? As a girl, it's highly dangerous, And it's insecure too... The thing is clear. The more you react, The less you know things probably. And never judge or blame someone, Just because of their Whatsapp status, Facebook or Instagram stories, If you think you are more clear with your perception, Then just give your opinions to them, That's all, the problem solved! Being defensive is not going to solve problems, Further, it creates them. In this digital era, As a grown-up, I think everyone is having their own way of looking things, And everyone is having their own perception, So you say, I never know what others are going through? I say, Why should I care? And remember You cannot change minds just like that, Until and Unless you care none cares about you, With time we are all just flowing, And Time heals everything, Time reveals who actually cares, And i...
