Book Review: The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen R. Covey<br />Rating: ★★★★★ (5/5)

Stephen R. Covey's The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People is an outstanding read that left a significant impression on me. Covey's ability to weave profound quotes from people of substance throughout the book adds depth and inspiration. One of the standout aspects for me was how the book emphasizes timeless principles, particularly the idea of seeking to understand others before trying to be understood. This not only encourages better listening but also promotes wisdom by fostering an understanding of different perspectives.

The transformative framework of evolving from dependence to independence, and then to interdependence, is life-altering. Covey challenges readers to grow from a mindset of lose/win or win/lose to embracing a win/win approach. This shift creates not only personal growth but also a ripple effect on relationships and leadership effectiveness.

The book goes beyond individual effectiveness—it provides insights into becoming a better leader, father, friend, spouse, and all-around person. It’s a guide to cultivating character and clarity, helping readers understand not only why others behave as they do but also why we behave as we do, shaped by our family and life experiences.

I particularly appreciated how it teaches the fundamentals of effective leadership and offers tools to be more efficient and purposeful. It’s a book for anyone looking to elevate their personal and professional life while gaining clarity on how to build meaningful relationships.

Although it was a long read for me, partly because I picked up and put down other books along the way, I’m glad to be finishing 2024 with this impactful work. Ending the year with The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People feels like a fitting way to welcome 2025 with a renewed focus on growth and effectiveness.

I highly recommend this book to anyone seeking to better themselves and understand life on a deeper level. Whether you're striving for clarity, wisdom, or simply more efficiency in life, this book is an essential read.

This is a good read with some very useful information. I do think it can get a bit wordy at times but still very useful.

Change is hard. How can I change? I suggest two practices for making changes in your life. The first is to follow your conscience. I speak a lot about the idea that between stimulus (what happens to us) and response (what we do about it) is a space to choose, and what we do with that space ultimately determines our growth and happiness. In this space lie the four human endowments of conscience, imagination, self-awareness, and independent will. Of the four, conscience is the governing one. Often, when we are not at peace in our lives, it is because we are living lives in violation of our conscience and deep down we know it. We can tap into conscience simply by asking ourselves questions and pausing to “hear” the answer. For example, try asking yourself the following questions: What is the most important thing I need to start doing in my personal life that would have the greatest positive impact? Think deeply. What comes to mind? Now, ask yourself another question: What is the most important thing that I need to start doing in my professional life that would have the greatest positive impact? Again, pause, think, and go deep inside yourself to find the answer. If you’re like me, you’ll recognize those most important things by listening to your conscience—that voice of wisdom, self-awareness, and common sense within you. Another great question to ask yourself is: What is life now asking of me? Pause. Think carefully. You may sense that you’ve been unfocused and need to be far more careful with the way you spend your time. Or you may decide that you need to start eating better and exercising because you’re constantly tired. Or you may sense that there is a key relationship you need to repair. Whatever it is, there is great strength and power in following through with a change that is endorsed by your conscience. Without deep conviction, you won’t have the strength to follow through with your goals when the going gets tough. And conviction comes through conscience. We all have three different lives: a public life, a private life, and an inner life. Our public life is what others observe. Our private life is what we do when we are alone. Our inner life is that place we go to when we really want to examine our motives and our deepest desires. I highly recommend developing this inner life. This is the place where our conscience can be most instructive because while here we are in the best frame of mind to listen. A second key to change is to change your role. As I’ve always said, if you want to make incremental changes in your life, change your behaviors. But if you want to make significant change, work on your paradigms, the way in which you see and interpret the world. And the best way to change your paradigm is to change your role. You may get promoted to be a new project manager at work. You may become a new mother or a new grandfather. You may take on a new community responsibility. Suddenly your role has changed and you see the world differently and better behaviors naturally flow out of the changed perspective. Sometimes role changes are external events, such as a change in a job responsibility. But other times we can change our role just by changing our mindset or our perception of a situation. Let’s say, for example, that you are seen as a control freak at work and that you know you need to start trusting others and letting go. Well, perhaps you could see yourself differently and redefine your role from one of “supervisor” to one of “advisor.” With this change of role, this mental shift, you would start to see yourself as an advisor to your team members who are empowered to make decisions and seek your counsel when doing so instead of being the one who has to own everything and constantly follow up. I’m often asked, Which of the 7 Habits is the most important? My answer is: The most important habit is the one you are having the most difficult time living. Use your endowments of self-awareness and conscience to help you sense which habit you may need to focus on. Often the best way to change is to pick the one thing, the single habit, and to make small commitments to yourself related to that habit and keep them. Little by little your discipline and self-confidence will increase.
