Compiled by:
Jahanzeb Jahan

3. All the 7 habits start with verb. It means action. We can adopt
them only by practice. You break a principle. You don’t actually
break it. You break yourself.

4. FOUNDATION
Our first energies should go to our own character
Development, which is often invisible to others, like the
roots that sustain great trees. As we cultivate the roots,
we will begin to see the fruits
--- Stephen R. Covey

5. FOUNDATION
Sow a thought, reap an action;
Sow an action, reap a habit;
Sow a habit, reap a character;
Sow a character, reap a destiny.
--- Samuel Smiles

6. CHARACTER: THE ROOTS OF EFFICTIVENESS
Personality Versus Character Ethics
 Personality Ethic. Success is a function of personality, of public image,
of attitudes and behaviors, skills and techniques, that lubricate the
processes of human interaction.
 Character Ethic. Success depends on things like integrity, humility,
fidelity, temperance, courage, justice, patience, industry, simplicity,
modesty, and the Golden Rule.

7. CHARACTER: THE ROOTS OF EFFICTIVENESS
Primary Versus Secondary Greatness
Primary Greatness: Goodness of character.
Secondary Greatness: Social recognition for
talent.

8. Character

12. EFFECTS OF CONDITIONING
We see what we are conditioned to see. We are
conditioned by our upbringing, environment and
experiences.
If you want small changes, work on your behaviour;
If you want quantum-leap changes, work on your paradigms.
---Stephen R. Covey

26. PAUSE AND RESPOND BASED ON PRINCIPLES
 Reactive Behaviour:
Reactive people allow outside influences (moods, feelings, and
circumstances) to control their response.
 Proactive Behaviour:
Proactive people pause to allow themselves the freedom to choose their
response based on principles and desired result. Their freedom to
choose expands as they wisely use the space between stimulus and
response.

---- George Bernard Shaw

28. PROACTIVE VS REACTIVE
USE PROACTIVE LANGUAGE
Proactive Language Reactive Language
“Let’s look at our alternatives”.
“I can choose a different approach”.
“I control my own feelings”.
“I can create and effective
presentation”
“I will choose an appropriate
response”.
“I choose”.
“I prefer”.
“I will”.
There’s nothing we can do.”
“That’s just the way I am”.
“He makes me so mad”.
“They won’t allow that”.
“I have to do that”.
“I can’t”.
“I must”.
“If only”.
There are only two ways to live your life.
One is though nothing is a miracle.
The other is though everything is a miracle
---- Albert Einstein

29. EXPAND YOUR CIRCLE OF INFLUENCE
Your Circle of Influence includes those things you can affect
directly. Your Circle of Concern includes all those things you care
about
PROACTIVE FOCUS:
When people focus on things they can
influence, they expand their knowledge and
experience, and they build trustworthiness.
As a result, their Circle of Influence grows.
REACTIVE FOCUS:
When people focus on things they cannot
control, they have less time and energy to
spend on things they can influence.
Consequently, their Circle of Influence
shrinks

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful
citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the
only thing that ever has.
---- Margaret Mead

31. Carry Out Your Own Weather
Life is the game of cards. Many a times we don’t get superior cards. We focus on
the things we can impact and not on those where we can’t. We must be happy with
all the cards and all the challenges. We must carry out our own weather

32. Being Proactive
Don’t be harsh to anyone. If you
feel anger or aggression, just type
your feelings in mobile or e mail
and then save it in drafts. Think
about the happening for one hour
or two and then read the written
aggression again. You will surely
change it.

33. Become a Transition Person

To the world, you may be just one person; but

“Would you tell me please which way I ought to go from here?”
“ That depends on good deal on where you want to get to,

38. What is You Aim?
No one can go back and make a brand-new start,
My friend; but anyone can start from here and make
a brand-new end
---- Dan Zadra

39. Create and Live by a Personal Mission Statement
A Personal Mission Statement is like a constitution by which you make all decisions
for your life. Highly effective people shape their own future instead of letting other
people, their culture, or their circumstances determine it. It clarifies what is
important for you, provides focus, helps you design your life instead of having it,
guides you day-to-day decisions and gives you a greater sense of meaning and
purpose.
We detect rather than invent our missions in life
----Viktor Frankl

40. Personal Mission Statement | Discover Yourself
Sit back and relax and then think about your Aim. Write 5 minutes about your aim
and don’t let you pen stop.
There is no greater joy nor greater reward than to
make a fundamental difference in someone’s life.
----Sister Mary Rose

41. Vision
 First create a vision and then go for it.
 Highly effective people clearly see the outcomes in life.
 Develop a habit of visioning in every step of life.
 In an organization, 15% know its goals and only 12%
actually work upon it.
Real happiness… is not obtained through
self gratification, but through fidelity to a
worthy purpose.
----Helen Keller

Tips for Weekly Planning:
When? Before the week begins.
Where? Someplace quiet.
How long? 20-30 minutes.

49. Review Mission and Roles
Plan weekly what you have to do
the whole week according to your
roles; as a Teacher, student,
son/daughter, parent, spouse,
friend etc.

50. Choose Big Rocks
As you plan your week, ask yourself this question:
What is the most important thing I can do in this role this week?
Big rocks come from:
• Conscience.
• Mission.
• Goals.
• Key Projects.
Big rocks can be:
• Tasks.
• Appointments.
• Areas of focus.
The nicest thing about not planning is that failure comes as
A complete surprise rather than being preceded by a period
Of worry and depression.
----Sir John Harvey-Jones

51. What are Big Rocks?
The jar represents a day and the big rocks represent
important tasks. If we fill the jar with small pebbles
that represent unnecessary works like excessive
hangs-out or sleeping, then we wont find place to
put big rocks. So first we must put big rocks and
then the pebbles

52. Schedule The Week
Using software, paper, or any handheld device. Schedule the big rocks first.

53. Plan Daily

The Emotional Bank Account (EBA) is a metaphor for the amount of trust that exists
in a relationship. Deposits build and repair trust in relationships. Withdrawals break
down and lessen trust in relationships.

61. Six Paradigms of Human Interaction
WIN-WIN: “Let’s find a solution that works for both of us”.
People who choose to win and make sure others also win practice WIN-WIN. They
search for solutions that will make them happy and simultaneously satisfy others.
Characteristics
• Seek mutual benefit.
• Is cooperative, not competitive
• Listen more, stays in communication longer,
and communicates with courage
WIN-LOSE: “I’m going to beat you no matter what”.
People with a WIN-LOSE paradigm are concerned with themselves first and last.
They want to win and they want others to lose. They achieve success at the expense
or exclusion of another’s success. They are driven be comparison, competition,
position, and power.
Characteristics
• Is very common scripting for most people.
• Is the authoritarian approach.
• Use position, power, possessions, or personality to
get the “WIN”

62. LOSE-WIN: “I always get stepped on.”
People who choose to lose and let others win show high consideration, but lack the
courage to express and act on their feelings and beliefs. They are easily intimidated
and borrow strength from acceptance and popularity.
Characteristics
• Is the mindset of s highly dependent person.
• Is a “no win” because nobody benefits.
• Is a long-term result of WIN-LOSE or “WIN”.
LOSE-LOSE: “if I’m going down, you’re going down with me.”
People with a WIN-LOSE paradigm are concerned with themselves first and last.
They want to win and they want others to lose. They achieve success at the expense
or exclusion of another’s success. They are driven be comparison, competition,
position, and power.
Characteristics
• Voices no standards, no demands, no expectations
of anyone else.
• Is quick to please or appease.
• Buries a lot of feelings.

63. WIN: “As long as I win, I don’t care if you win or lose.”
People who hold a WIN paradigm think only of getting what they want. Although
they don’t necessarily want others to lose, they are personally set on winning. They
think independently in interdependent situations, without awareness of others.
Characteristics
• Is self-centered.
• Thinks “me first”.
• Doesn't really care if the other person wins or
loses.
WIN-WIN OR NO DEAL: “Lets find a solution that works for both of us, or let’s
not play.”
WIN-WIN OR NO DEAL is the highest form of WIN-WIN. People who adopt this
paradigm seek first to WIN_WIN. If they cannot find an acceptable solution, they
agree to disagree agreeably.
Characteristics
• Allows each party to say no.
• Is the most realistic at the beginning of a
relationship or business deal.
• Is the highest form of WIN-WIN.

64. WIN-WIN
BALANCE COURAGE AND CONSIDERATION
You don’t have to blow out the other
person’s light to let your own shine.
----Bernard M. Baruch

65. Examples of WIN-WIN Agreements
Parent-Child Example
A child neglects her homework and her grades are suffering. The parents are
frustrated and tires of nagging her about it.
Desired Results
Guidelines
Resources
Accountability
Consequences
Homework done each day; better grades/ Stop the nagging.
Can’t watch TV etc. until homework is done/ Only one reminder a day.
Parents, tutor, after-school programs.
Parents signs off on homework everyday, checks online for grades.
Positive: Feel better about self; dinner and movie with parent.
Negative: if unsuccessful– summer school.
Its not about the winning,
its how you play the game

Asking questions from our own frame of reference or agenda.
Explaining another’s motives and behaviours based on our own

our problem, can change our whole outlook on
the world
----Dr. Elton Mayo

 1. Check Willingness. (Be willing to search for a
solution that is better than what either of you has in
mind)
 Reflect Viewpoints. (Restate the other’s viewpoint to
his or her satisfaction before you state your own)
 Create New Ideas. (Propose and refine new ideas. Go
back for further understanding until you arrive at a
Third Alternative).

79.  People who are truly effective have
the humility and reverence to
recognize their own perceptual
limitations and appreciate the rich
resources available through
interaction with the hearts and
minds of other human beings.
 Stephen Covey

80. Check willingness
 When you face a problem or opportunity, start the
getting to Synergy process by asking the other party,
“Would you be willing to search for a solution that is
better than what either of us has in mind.
 Lack of trust stops us to go for the THIRD
ALTERNATIVE.
 Did you ever go for third alternative???

81. Reflect Viewpoints
 The Talking Stick
When you feel you are
Right, are you willing to
Put aside your own
Personal views and
Feelings so you can truly
Listen to the other person?

82. Lets Argue!!!!

83. Create New Ideas
Once you feel you have achieved a solid level of mutual
understanding, propose and refine alternatives: a new
insight, a model, a plan of action, or a prototype. Keep
refining, creating, and going back for further
understanding until you have arrived at a Third
Alternative.

84. Third Alternative Created
You create Third Alternative when you both:
1. Have a change of heart
2. Feel new energy and excitement
3. See things in new way
4. Feel the relationship has transformed
5. End up with an idea that is better than the ideas you
started with.

85. Getting to Synergy Scenarios
The Call Center
A call center wants to improve customer satisfaction.
One team leader says that we should take fast calls to
obliged more and more in fewer time.
Whereas the second team leader says that we must take
time and help the customers in details.
Third Alternative???

86. The Barking Dog
On Sunday morning, your neigbour comes and
complains about your dog who kept barking all the
night. He suggests you to make him to sleep. You feel
aggressive but you remember Win-Win
Now come to a Third Alternative.
