The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People

The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People

Habit 1: Be Proactive

"Habit 1 is the key to unlocking all the 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 or unhappiness. I am in the driver's seat of my destiny, not just a passenger."

Being proactive is a great habit that must be used in everyday life. You must control the way you want your life to head, the way that you want it to be. It's all about heading towards your goal to what you want to be successful. In order to go in the right direction you must be proactive. This habit will ensure to strive for more success. You just can't be proactive one day and the next day you won't, it just doesn't work like that it's all about making it a 24/7 thing. Being proactive is the key that will bring so many great habits to making you successful. It all determines on you and what you do, it determines on me and what I do. I am proactive and I am in charge and on the driver's seat to my destiny that awaits. Responsibility is important for being proactive it's all about waking up and knowing that you will be responsible for being proactive today. I will arrive at my destiny and the other habits for being proactive. I control on what I do in my life and I choose to be Proactive to chase on my destiny. 

Habit 2: Begin with the end in mind 
"Control your destiny or someone else would." (Jack Welch)

When starting something it is important to always important to finish what you started. The end is the best thing to something that you have started. It is a great feeling seeing the end in mind because once you get there, happiness and joy come out of it. I always intend in finishing what I just started because I know that I am going to finish because I have the end in mind. Someone should not be able to control your ending, your destiny. The only person that controls that is you and only you. I control what I am going to do with my destiny and I make sure it's good. Beginning with the end in mind is something to always think of for example if you study for a test and you study over and over then in the end you will get a good grade on the test because in order to get to the end you must have the sequence in mind too on how to get there. Every person has a destiny to get too, that's called their destiny and they all control it, they all control their own destiny. People will try to take advantage of your destiny but what is important and to always keep in mind is that you only you can control it and will not let anybody in the driver's seat of your destiny. The only person that should be in the driver's  seat is you and you're driving your way to your destination which is your destiny.

Habit 3: Put first things first
"Organize and execute around priorities" 

Putting things first is important to every human being it has to become a habit. When you think of doing something that thing must be put first and must be done. Being organize is important it makes things easier and faster and truly will help through out all life. For example it's like being on a slide what you must do first is climb up the slide and then you will need to slide down. Climbing might not be fun but it is the first thing that has to be done. Then comes adjusting yourself to slide down. Finally, you have fun sliding down, all these are steps that must be done correctly and organized because it is important to do things the right way in order to finish the right way. The beginning is the starting of many things and that's why it's the most important.


habit 4: Think Win-Win
"Think Win-Win or no deal'

It's all about thinking that you're going to win. You can't win if you think that you're going to think of losing. Thinking that you're going to lose will make you lose. I am a person who thinks of winning, if I lose i obviously didn't put so much thought into winning, I know that I must try harder to win. There is no deal if you're not thinking of winning because that is just something that's going to come with luck. You just have to keep trying over and over and have the confidence to win. Winners are not just naturally made they put so much effort into focusing on winning and when their time comes then they will put themselves to the limit and win. I try my hardest to become a winner and I know that I can do it because I have confidence and effort. I don't want no deal I want win. When people train or practice what every athlete looks up to is to win that's a number one requirement, every athlete looks forward to win I look forward to win. With the train and thought into winning, and if it's the main focus then there is going to be a victory in the end of the game. It doesn't have to just be a sport winning results in many ways.


Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, then to be Understood. 
"Diagnose before you prescribe"
It is important to understand before saying something about you're understanding. It's all about learning so you can understand the subject so then you can go on and teach others. Learning about what's wrong is the most important thing to do before you actually try to solve the problem. If you just go on ahead and try to solve the problem right away then there might be a big chance that the problem will only resolve on being bigger. This habit is all about understanding others and understanding yourself. For example going to doctor they need to diagnose what's wrong and what's making you sick so they can prescribe you the medicine that will make you better. In school I must understand the subject I'm learning so I can advance forward and make others understand what I have understood. The people who are really successful are the ones who did lots of listening and less talking. Before doing anything the first thing that must come is listening. A big problem in listening is that we listen to reply not  to understand. Understanding is a key part in life it's what will make others understand you.


Habit 6: Synergize
"The whole is greater than the sum of its parts (1+1=3)"
This habit is all about teamwork. On this habit it is very important to me because the whole world runs on teamwork. Nothing can be done if it's just a person by themselves, teamwork gets the job done faster and easier. Being together is being stronger. People work together for everything and this is correct and will be forever. When one person or many others combine their efforts it will lead to many accomplishments. It is better to work together than working apart. Synergy can accomplish many things in life, it can benefit almost anything. When a building is being built, it can't be done alone by just one worker it requires a team a huge team to combine and unite to create a marvelous building. Synergy isn't just  for the work force it goes beyond and is introduced and adapted by many other people and businesses. Many people don't want to be in team and that is just not good, later on that person that doesn't like teamwork will realize that everything requires teamwork. In sports in order to score a touchdown or a goal the whole team needs to work together to accomplish the objective.

Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw

Four Dimensions of Self-Renewal: Physical, Mental, Spiritual, Social/Emotional
These will be about the four dimensions of physical, mental, spiritual, and social/emotional. These are very important attributes to have in every day life. These have to be applied to everyday life but must never disappear, you must be productive everyday in life. That's why the saw must be sharpen so you can continue being productive. A saw over time of being used will become less and less productive from working everyday. Just like there must be a saw for life and must be used everyday over and over but after the saw of your life starts to get less productive, it must get sharpened so it can continue the next day and then the next day until you have to sharpen the saw of your life again. The way you can sharpen the saw is to eat healthy , get good rest, get some exercise, take breaks, breathe deeply, and many more that will help. That was some physical ways that the saw of life can be sharpened. Now there is mental ways like solving puzzles, find a hobby, and other mental ways that can best suit the saw of life. The way to spiritually sharpen the saw can be in a way as such as praying. The way to social and emotionally sharpen the saw is by hanging out or talking with friends. have people that you can connect to, that know you and that you feel comfortable with. The final way you can emotionally sharpen the saw is by talking to family members and connecting with them connecting others.

Reflection:
These 7 habits will forever be habits that I will have in my daily life style I am a very proactive person. I control my life the way I want and will continue doing it my way I am not a reactive person and don't intend on being. I am on the drivers seat for my life, I control it, and i'm going straight on the road to completing my goals. There might be bumps and curves in the way but that is not going to stop me from completing my goals. The 2nd habit is to begin with the end in mind, that is something that I always think of before I start something. If I start something I have to keep in mind that I will finish what I started. I see things all the way to the end and will want it to end the way I start to the end. I have many things in my life, but the most important are the ones that must be first. This 3rd habit is a big one I have to put so many things first like my education and my family. Many things like my hobbies and activities I just can wait. Winning is something that's always on my head. This 4th habit is all about thinking to win so you can actually win. When I play soccer I always think on winning and doing my best so that my team and I could win. If I don't feel confident about winning then I'm not doing it right, and if I lose then I know that I wasn't thinking about winning and I must work harder. I understand people I must understand people before I can be a person that people will understand. This 5th habit is all about listening and understanding. It is not good to understand and talk at the same time it must be all listening and focus. Synergy is what is so important to me, the whole world is built on synergy. Everything that is here in this world required a team and hard work. I will sharpen the saw and will continue to have all the attributes. The four dimensions are really important and will add them to my everyday life. 

Importance of setting goals

Importance of Setting Goals

The importance of setting goals is setting a milestone for you to make that goal come true. All through my whole I've been taught that I must create my goals and accomplish those goals. Small goal big goal it doesn't matter what's the size of the goal all that matters is that you reach the goal knowing that you did it. It is important to have huge goals, goals that you will try so hard to reach. Once you complete this goal you will feel great, but it just doesn't stop there what happens after completing a goal is that there is more goals to create, to chase, and to complete. I will go through my whole life creating goals and i will not stop because goals is showing me that I can do it I can put so much hard work and effort to my goals that i will continue to chase and will accomplish. I might have some goals that sound impossible but it is not impossible until I accomplish my goal. I will tell people my goal and they will tell me I can't but I still believe in myself and know that if I try so hard I know I can do it. Goals keep me on track, it makes me put effort in trying and not giving up. Goals are important to me to everyone.

How to win friends and influence people

Six rules to make people like you. If you want people to like you...

Rule #1:Become Genuinely interested in other people

Being a friend is about knowing that person and obviously you must be interested in them. Friends are people that know each other and always are interested with them. Making friends is great because that is someone you know and can talk to and share what's on each others mind. People will become interested in you and will want to be your friend and that will lead to a friendship. Friendship is all about knowing each other and one of the best way of knowing them is by asking questions that you know they will feel comfortable answering. Sometimes a question can be risky and you might not know it, but you can all fix it up if you continue it if they're comfortable. Knowing your friend is important and knowing about them is because you're interested in making friends and that's what matters that you have friends to rely on. Some friends will get closer than others and those who you mainly are interested the most and are interested on you too. People will know you as a friend and will be happily to see you. Lots of people can and will get interested in you for who you are.

Rule #2: Smile

A smile is what best speaks about a person. A smiles action is showing that you are happy to see someone and they are happy to see you. A smile is a perfect way to make friends. I believe it is the key part for someone on becoming a friend. The reason I believe it's the key part on becoming a friend and having friends is because it's an action  that shows that your're happy and is excited to see them. A smile is what a friend looks forward on seeing when they see their friend or friends. A smile comes out of all the joy you have with that friend. If you don't feel like smiling then you must force it because you might break your friends smile when you see them. A smile can speak many words but it totally says "I want to be your friend to other people." I have read books on where it states "having a smile is a key point of making friends." 

Rule #3: Remember names


Remembering names is important. It's important because friends like it when you remember their name. If you can't remember their name but they know yours it's a bit of disappointing to feel because you don't know their name. Knowing a person's name is an important feature of a person you want to be friends with. A name is given to everyone and it is important for people to remember it. People like hearing their name being used by their friends. Remembering names is a key part in making friends because it all starts by knowing who they are. Knowing a person's name is the start that can lead to a big friendship. I know a lot of people and I know them by their name and call them by their name because they are someone that I call a friend. My friends name is important to them and it is important to me to call them by their name. I might create a nickname for some of my friends and call them that way because that was friendship is all about doing what I can call my friends by and knowing that it's fine with us. 

Rule # 4: Be a good listener. Encourage others to talk about themselves. 

Being a good listener is important because you have to listen to anything people are saying to you. You have to pay attention to what your friends are saying because they feel comfortable by saying stuff to you. It is important to keep encouraging your friends to tell you something because you can come up with a solution for them. A person must know their friends very well and must listen to them. I am interested in people and I want them to become my friends so I must listen to what they must say to me. It is important to know what my friends say because I get to know them more and that creates an important bond.  I would always create a conversation with my friends. Our conversation will go from one thing to another and literally will have no ending because it is that interesting. If I do not listen to my friends then i will probably feel sad because they were expecting for me to listen and  couldn't, I will feel ashamed. It it is important that the person you are interested in himself just as he is interested in you. 


Rule # 5: Talk in terms of other man's interest

It is important to be talking in the terms the person of your interest to be talking in the way that interests him or her. The way to create a good friend from meeting them is to talk about the things that interest them. For example if you meet up with someone who likes baseball it is best to talk about the sport they like not soccer nor football, it's baseball. Someone wouldn't be interested in you if you seem to talk about something that doesn't interest them. They will soon get to know you by the way that you talk to the person of your interest. The they will talk about what interests you and that will start the friendship bond. Friends are made by each other's interest and will even attain new things because of the friendship. I have many friends and the thing that we talk about the most is our favorite sport soccer, we could go on for days and days talking about our interests. The terms must be applied in the way you speak to them that will start the interest from them to you. With this rule the interest will start a friendship.

Rule #6: Make the other person feel important, and do it sincerely. 

It is very important for people themselves to feel important. Friends are very important to each other. It is important to keep your friends for as long as you can, because they are people who are important to you and you are important to them. My friends are important to me and I know that I am important to them. I have great pleasure for the friends that I have made and got interest to. It must be done sincere to make someone feel important because the way you make them feel important is the way you show how much you show the interest in them. I show interest to all my friends and I know that they show the same amount of interest that I show to them. I create good moments with my friends and show them that they are my friends that mean a lot to me. I help out my friends and people because I know that they are important and they have my interest. It's all in the way of manner to show that they are important and to demonstrate just how much this person of interest means to you. 


Reflection:

These six rules are rules that will definitely guarantee a friend. In rule number one you must be interested in people, that means you must look at people who you have an interest making your friend as they will also have on you. The most important rule that I think is on these six rules is to smile. Smiling is the best feature to show when making friends because they can see you are happy to see them and they know that you feel fine and there isn't anything wrong because all they want to do is just become friends with the person that interest them. A smile means a lot to me and when I see it I know they feel good. Remembering names is important because people love to hear their name it is given to them since the day they are born and they will forever be hearing their name from that day, Remembering a person's name will make them have a feeling of friendship. It is important to always listen to what people say to you, if you don't then a very hard time will be with you. Listening is a great feature we have and it is great to listen to the people we are interested in becoming our friend so that's why it's also important to listen to what they like. Talking with terms to your person of interest is highly best to do, because they must hear the tone that you will speak to them if that makes them feel good or not. If I am interested in a person I will talk to them in the manor that they would love to be talked to. The person that I am interested in must feel important and that is what I do I make the person I want to be my friend feel important and I do it in the way where they are glad I am interested in them.

Las Vegas Mass Murdering

Las Vegas Mass Murdering

My dearest thoughts and condolences go out to the people that were victims in the mass shooting. My uncle had a friend who was killed at the concert by the shooter. My uncle was very sad to hear the news because his friend inspired him and looked up to him and had lots of respect for him. This mass shooting is the biggest mass shooting in american soil. The shooter went to the 32nd floor to cause chaos on the people that turned their country music concert into absolute terror.  The distance from which he fired from was 400 yards away. Seeing the videos of the terror in people's eyes truly is a devastating thing to see. Half of my family lives in Las Vegas and they have just been currently in the hospital when this was happening and they told me that they just saw all the sadness in people's eyes and all the victims being rushed to the emergency rooms.
