I don't know how many of you are familiar with the book "The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People" by Steven R. Covey, but this is what's going into my brain via the audio CD. My husband and I are both exposing ourselves to this potentially amazing way of thinking and acting. I am choosing to apply the principles learned from this book to my parenting.
I will be walking through each of the Seven Habits on my blog as I learn about them and use them when interacting with Carrick. I will report back the results, and hopefully we can all learn something from this little experiment.
The Seven habits include: 1) Be Proactive 2) Begin with End in mind 3) Put first things first 4) Think "win/win" 5) Seek first to understand, then to be understood 6) Synergize 7) Sharpen the saw.
So, with that in mind, I will be proactive and get started!
