Proactive
• This is the ability to control one's environment, rather than
control other.
• It is more than taking initiative. Be Proactive
When you are PROACTIVE, you make a choice about how you
react to the things that happen in your life. You act like a water
bottle. You might get shaken up or mad, but you stay calm and
don’t explode.

Put First Things First
Put First Things First is about time management. The Time
Matrix® provides a model for identifying and prioritizing
tasks based on urgency and importance. Truly effective
people ensure the most meaningful tasks related to their
personal mission statement are accounted for in weekly and
daily planning.

Think Win-Win
15
Many people think in terms of either/or: either
you’re nice or you’re tough. Win-win requires that
you be both. It is a balancing act between courage
and consideration.
The Habit of Mutual Benefit

There are three vital character traits that are essential to this
paradigm:
•Integrity: sticking with your true feelings, values, and commitments.
•Maturity: expressing your ideas and feelings with courage and
consideration for the ideas and feelings of others.
•Abundance Mentality: believing there is plenty for everyone.
"To go for Win-Win, you not only have to be nice, you have to
be courageous."

1. Win-Win: Both people win. Agreements or solutions are mutually beneficial and satisfying to both
parties.
2. Win-Lose: "If I win, you lose." Win-Lose people are prone to use position, power, credentials, and
personality to get their way.
3. Lose-Win: "I lose, you win." Lose-Win people are quick to please and appease, and seek strength from
popularity or acceptance.
4. Lose-Lose: Both people lose. When two Win-Lose people get together — that is, when two,
determined, stubborn, ego-invested individuals interact — the result will be Lose-Lose.
5. Win: People with the Win mentality don't necessarily want someone else to lose — that's irrelevant.
What matters is that they get what they want.
6. Win-Win or No Deal: If you can't reach an agreement that is mutually beneficial, there is no deal.
Covey explains that there are six paradigms of human interaction:

Seek First to Understand, Then to Be
Understood

The Habit of Empathic Communication
Unknowingly, in conversation we filter what we hear through our
own life experiences and frame of reference. Before a person
finishes what they are saying, we’ve already formulated a response.

When we listen autobiographically — in other words, with our own perspective as our
frame of reference — we tend to respond in one of four ways:
1. Evaluate: Agree or disagree with what is said
2. Probe: Ask questions from our own frame of reference
3. Advise: Give counsel based on our own experience
4. Interpret: Try to figure out the person's motives and behavior based on our own
motives and behavior

Synergize
Synergize is the habit of creative cooperation and
can only be achieved by valuing the diverse
paradigms and opinions of others. In a synergistic
environment, true collaboration takes place because
the whole is always greater than the sum of its parts.
