It is a wonderful self-help book by Stephen R. Covey. It deals with eminent victory, not only in the professional but also in the personal sphere. It describes in great detail the seven habits that can make your life a success.

Habit 1: “Be proactive.”
Proactivity is about taking responsibility for one’s reaction to one’s own experiences and taking the initiative to respond positively and improve the situation.

Habit 2: “Begin with the end in mind.”
Covey discusses envisioning what one wants in the future so one can work and plan towards it and understanding how people make important life decisions.

Habit 3: “Put first things first”
This habit focuses on using Dwight Eisenhower’s time management matrix to arrange things in order of priority.

Habit 4: “Think win–win”
“Thinking win-win” isn’t about being nice, nor is it a quick-fix technique; it is a character-based code for human interaction and collaboration, says Covey.

Habit 5: “Seek first to understand, then to be understood.”
Use empathetic listening to genuinely understand a person, which compels them to reciprocate the listening and have an open mind to being influenced. This creates an atmosphere of caring and positive problem-solving.

Habit 6: “Synergize.”
Covey exhorts people to combine their strengths through positive teamwork in order to achieve goals that no one could have done alone.

Habit 7: “Sharpen the saw.”
One should balance and renew one’s resources, energy, and health to create a sustainable, long-term, effective lifestyle. He primarily emphasizes exercise for physical renewal, good prayer, and good reading for mental renewal.
