~Barbara A. Lewis

1. Telling the truth lets everyone know what really happened. There's less chance of misunderstanding, confusion, or conflict.
2. telling the truth protects innocent people from being blamed or punished.
3. telling the truth allows everyone to learn for what happened.
4. You get into less trouble for telling the truth other than for lying (and getting caught).
5. Other people trust you more when you tell the truth.
6. You don't have to tell ( and remember) more lies to keep your story straight.
7. You gain a reputation for being truthful- a trait most people value.
8. Telling the truth helps you to feel secure and peaceful inside.

the seven habits

The seven habits of highly effective people

Habit 1: Be Proactive

 "Habit 1 is the key to unlocking all other habits and that's why it comes first. It says, "I am the captain of my life. I can choose my attitude. I'm responsible for my own happiness. I am in the driver's seat of my destiny, not just a passenger."

When we’re told that the situations we find ourselves in and the emotions we experience are largely from our own doing, it can be hard to accept. Reactive people are essentially like characters in a movie, playing out the script. They often resemble powerless victims, having their lives run by external factors. They have little control over their emotions.Instead, their emotions are dictated by someone or something else; by circumstance and the outside environment.It involves a huge paradigm shift, with us taking responsibility for our current circumstances.The natural reaction is often to resist and to argue otherwise, until eventually the light bulb flicks on. The eureka moment occurs the realization that we are in fact in control, if we want to be. 


Habit 2 : Begin with the end in mind 

"Control your own destiny or someone else will." (Jack Welch)

To control your destiny is the most important thing to do you can never let somebody else control your life for you. the important thing is to seek your dreams and take control of how you want that dream to come true.Don't ever let someone tell you that you can't do something for yourself when you grow up. Like if you want to be a famous football player or basketball, do it, go for it, don't ever let someone you can't succeed in life. Be the leader of your own future never let someone else be a leader of it.


Habit 3 : Put first things first

"Organize and execute around priorities."

Focus on the important thing. Things that are going to lead you to well places, not things that won't lead you to your career or good achievements.Do not put your priorities second because those priorities will determine your plans for tomorrow. Leaving thing for tomorrow has never been a great idea because then that shows you laziness and that becomes a habit so save yourself from becoming lazy and a procrastinator. It is very hard to get out of it.


Habit 4 : Think WIN-WIN

"Think win-win or no deal"

I've almost never been the kind of person to think about both sides being win-win. I think to me if I'm in a good situation the other person loses and I win. Or if I'm in a bad situation, obviously I lose and the other side wins.This takes a lot of compromise. the quote means that both parties got even halves and since one didn't win the other one didn't. it doesn't mean necessarily that you will win every time it means you will find a middle ground to what you want. compromising with the other person.







Habit 5 : Seek first to understand then to be understood

"Diagnose before you prescribe."
You should always listen to what others have to say before you speak. You should never speak without knowing the content. Always pay attention to what others say. You have to learn to listen and analyze



Habit 6: Synergize

The whole is greater than the sum of its parts (1+1=3)

Synergize is the habit of creative cooperation. It is teamwork, open-mindedness, and the adventure of finding new solutions to old problems. But it doesn't just happen on its own. It's a process, and through that process, people bring all their personal experience and expertise to the table. One has to learn to cooperate with others to have a full on healthy relationship or get the task done. Many times you could say is heard headed for not wanting to get suggestions or help from others but sometimes it works out better. 


Habit 7 : Sharpen the saw 

Four dimensions of self renewal: physical, mental, spiritual, social/emotional 


They often resemble powerless victims, having their lives run by external factors. They have little control over their emotions.Instead, their emotions are dictated by someone or something else; by circumstance and the outside environment. But it doesn't just happen on its own. It's a process, and through that process, people bring all their personal experience and expertise to the table. One has to learn to cooperate with others to have a full on healthy relationship or get the task done. To control your destiny is the most important thing to do you can never let somebody else control your life for you. the important thing is to seek your dreams and take control of how you want that dream to come true.

Reflection:  Regarding the " The 7 habits of highly effective People," I can tell you that they are very important because they all different yet common all at the same time.  

Three Fundamental Techniques in Handling people

Technique 1: Don't criticize, condemn or complain. 

"If you want to gather honey, don't kick over the beehive."


We have no right to judge others. We can not make decisions for other people because they self guide their lives. The are in charge of dictating their own outcome and deciding what is to come of our lives. If they make a decision that we are not necessarily fond of or not for, we must bite our tongue and allow them to live out their decision on.
Technique 2: Give honest and sincere appreciation 

"The big secret in dealing with people"

The big secret of dealing with people is that you have to be respectful to them especially if you do not consent with them often or know them. appreciating something or someone is being thankful. You will soon realize that the more that you appreciate, the happier you will be. Spending your time building up hatred and being mad at the world will consume your life. With hatred comes loneliness and sadness. Loneliness can kill a man, make them do things that they never thought they could do. 

Technique 3: Arouse in the other person an eager want.

"He who can do this has the whole world with him. He who cannot, walks a lonely way."



What this means is that  when someone gets inspiration on learning about others has ideal knowledge about them and having people around them coming on as friendly. but when one stays of by themselves and no interest on others they will be always alone. Me myself have always been a person that come on shy but as some points starts to talk with those I dont know because at the end of the day i love getting to know knew people its very delightful to have strangers at that moment later on become friend of some sort or just people you know.Understanding the other person and what they want, hope for, desire – what motivates them – is key. Another person sees how what you’re asking ties into what’s most important to them then they’re likely to tackle it with more enthusiasm and more likely follow through.
