Summary

The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People: Powerful Lessons in Personal Change by Stephen R. Covey is a self-improvement book, first published in 1989. Covey says that most of the people approach their life’s problems in an ad-hoc manner. To be really effective, one should solve the personal and professional problems in life in a systematic manner and with the same core values and ideas. He goes on to detail the seven habits of highly effective people which are as follows:

Be Proactive

The first habit is to categorize what is within one’s control and what is not. One should not waste time and energy focusing on events which are beyond their control, rather, they should focus on events which are within their control.

Begin With End In Mind

The second habit is to learn how to develop goals. Setting goals allow for planning of bottlenecks and ways of overcoming them. Goal setting also lets achieving the results in a faster and more efficient manner.

Put First Things First

This habit talks about prioritization in life. One should prioritize what is important in life and what is not. This leads to the better scheduling of the activities so that the goals are achieved.

Think Win-Win

People should aim for not personal victory where only they win, but for public victory where they win and the others also win. When only individual wins and others lose, there will be growing resentment for that individual. If a deal does not have scope for win-win for all, the deal can be restarted. Working with groups in an office, the superior can ensure that their team members believe that their best interests are protected by their leader and it will be a win-win for all of them.

Seek First To Understand, Then Be Understood

Attentive listening is important for any leader. People do not listen as they do not perceive any value from it. Listening should be done to understand the problem and not with an intent to respond immediately. One can not provide an optimal solution to a problem if they do not understand the problem properly. Listening provides deeper and better understanding of the problem. Not having listening skills and not understanding the problems can hamper the professional life and progression.

Synergise

The author suggests that the whole is greater than the sum total of the parts. This produces synergy. If one has a bigger network of effective people working on a problem then everyone will put their inputs and perspective on it. The group will come to a better solution than if each of them would have worked on the problem individually.

Sharpen The Law

The final habit helps in growing the other habits to grow and develop. One should take time and ensure that their mental, spiritual and physical self have the time and space they need to imbibe the other habits which slowly become a part of their characters.

  • Finding a book that truly gives you your money's worth and teaches you valuable and exciting new concepts is an amazing feeling. Dr. Covey's "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People: Powerful Lessons in Personal Change" has made me reflect on numerous areas in my life that I can improve upon. One particular idea that resonated with me was the importance of not wasting time on insignificant matters, as Covey puts it, "not getting in the thick of thin things." This nugget of wisdom alone makes the book worth every penny. I have a strong desire to become a better spouse and parent, and I firmly believe that implementing the principles outlined in this book will greatly assist me in achieving that goal.
  • If you're being honest with yourself and truly pay attention to the author's message, this book can have a profound and long-lasting impact on your life. It has not only changed my life, but also transformed the way I think about it. Being only 23, I feel fortunate to have come across this book before I became stuck in my old ways of thinking. Without a doubt, this is one of the greatest books I've ever read! I wouldn't give it up for anything. Many thanks!
  • The author's insights in this audiobook are top-notch, but unfortunately, the narrator falls flat. I came across a review recommending the abridged version, but I didn't pay heed to it, and now I'm regretting my decision. I'm certain that the abridged version would have been more engaging than listening to this narrator repetitively expressing the same concepts in 20 different ways. By the way, I haven't been able to make it through the entire audiobook.
  • The content is solid, but it becomes difficult to keep up with due to the subpar narrator. If only there was a different person narrating, I would wholeheartedly suggest picking up this book. You really need to pay attention while listening to fully grasp the information. It's not a book that you can effortlessly absorb.
  • This audiobook offers valuable perspectives on handling interpersonal relationships by looking inward. It references figures like Victor Frankel and other individuals who demonstrate how to transform challenges into opportunities. It distinguishes itself from typical self-help books by serving as a supportive companion that leads the listener on a journey of self-discovery.
  • I'm being quite generous with my rating of just one star. Based on the description that highlights "proven principles of fairness, integrity, honesty, and human dignity," one would naturally expect this book to offer valuable advice. However, I have my doubts about the author's understanding of psychology, despite their evident research. Most of the advice provided is either overly simplistic or a mix of true and false statements. There were moments that made me cringe, as if I were listening to someone asserting the efficacy of subliminal advertising. Eventually, I couldn't bring myself to finish the entire audiobook as the advice started making me feel foolish. In the end, it seemed like a regurgitation of popular psychology. To sum it up, I'd equate this book to someone telling you, "Your biggest flaw is that you can't handle criticism from those who are more intelligent than you." It's truly nauseating.
  • Listening to "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People: Powerful Lessons in Personal Change" was definitely not a walk in the park, but let me tell you, after giving the program a good eight spins, it has truly proven its worth. Incorporating these principles into my daily routine has yielded numerous benefits.
  • I'd recommend purchasing the book instead...this rendition was tough to keep up with and not particularly enjoyable. I quickly lost interest and became bored...even though the physical copy is exceptional, the audio version receives a poor rating.
  • If you're not into religion and don't have (or don't want) children, this audiobook might not be your cup of tea. It heavily relies on examples related to family, kids, and spirituality, which didn't resonate with me personally. However, I must admit that overall, the audiobook does contain some valuable sections that can be applied to various life scenarios.
