The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People is Stephen Covey’s best-selling book. This book “The seven habits of highly effective people” by Stephen Covey opens with an explanation of how many individuals who have achieved a high degree of outward success still find themselves struggling with an inner need for developing personal effectiveness and growing healthy relationships with other people.

00:00 Habit # 5 – Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood
03:47 Habit # 6 – Synergize
07:05 Habit # 7 – Sharpen the Saw

Habit 5 of the seven habits of highly effective people says that we must seek first to understand, then to be understood. In order to seek to understand, we must learn to listen first.

Stephen Covey in “The 7 habits of highly effective people” remarks,
“You have spent years of your life learning how to read and write, years learning how to speak. But what about listening?”

The combination of all the other habits prepares us for Habit 6 among the habits of highly effective people, which is the habit of synergy or “When one plus one equals three or more and the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.”

How can we introduce synergy to a given situation or environment? Start with habits 4 and 5 of seven effective habits by Stephen Covey– you must think Win-Win and seek first to understand.

Habit 7 of the principle centered 7 habits is focused around renewal, or taking time to “sharpen the saw.” It surrounds all of the other habits and makes each one possible by preserving and enhancing your greatest asset — yourself.
