My parents noticed I was having troubles with my self-being. They forced me to read this book (I was not impressed when the put it in my hands) but after the first page i was hooked. I was so impressed with this book it's crazy. It made so much sense, and I could totally relate to it on so many different levels. I was just incredibly surprised how easy it was to read, since usually when you pick up one of these "how-to" books, they're dry and not interesting. Well, not this book! I

قرأت هذا الكتاب عندما كنت في المرحله الثانويه , ساعدني كثيرا لأنه كما أحب ان اطلق عليه " كتاب شامل " .. ليس فقط يهتم بتكوين العلاقات الايجابيه مع الناس وانما ايضا يشرح عن كيفيه تقسيم الأولويات , فمن هذا الكتاب تعلمت تقسيم جدول الاولويات الى هذا اليوم ..

كتاب رائع بكل ما للكلمة من معنى
كنت قد قرأت جزئاً من كتاب ستيفن كوفي: العادات السبع للأشخاص الاكثر فعالية
ولكنني شعرت بالملل بعد قراءة الثلاثين صفحة الأولى
أما مع كتاب الابن شين فلا مكان لملل
الكتاب يعطيك في البداية دفعة معنوية كبيرة
ثم يبدأ شيئاً فشيئاً بتهيئتك للخوض في غمار هذه التجربة الممتعة
التي تعلمك أن الحياة قصيرة جداً لنضيعها

I read this book because it is required for all Ursuline freshmen. Despite the intended audience, I found some good lessons about life. I must say that sometimes I find self-help books too didactic, repetitive, or unrealistically positive. "The Seven Habits" was no exception to this trend. However, I was different this time. When I've read self-help books before, I've always been looking for some great answer to life; this time I wasn't. Instead, I was looking for a way to provide h

It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Mostly, it had fun cartoons, short sections, and nice chunking of the generally reasonable advice into easy to digest piece. The author makes an effort to include personal accounts from all walks of life to appeal to a broad audience.
On the flip side, the advice wandered into the platitude range a few times. In one section, the author's advice to students who say they can't focus on studying is simply to "discipline themselves". More...

So basically, this book is about how you can make yourself a better rounded person. I had to do read this book in Leadership Class and had to do a project on it. Okay, first of all the 7 habits are Proactive, Begin with the End in Mind, Put First Things First, Think Win-Win, Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood, Synergize, and Sharpen the Saw.

This book... has me confused. At times, the author suggests overly saccharine and simplistic solutions to problems that are often more complicated. At others, the author seems to have a keen grasp of subject matter, and provides really good tips and in-depth study of problem areas for teens. At yet others, the author oversimplifies teens into roles that are often confined to three or four simplistic categories. Some of his advice seems like common sense-- if the teen isn't already practicing

The 7 Habits Of Highly Effective Teens is about learning the 7 habits for success. Each chapter is a habit, in the chapter the author tells you how to develop it. Although you have to start from the first habit because you won't understand the next habit if you didn't start from the first one or didn't read the previous one. The 7 habits are: 1.Be proactive 2. Begin with the end in mind 3. Put first things first 4. Think Win- Win 5. Seek first to understand, then to be understood 6. Synergize 7

I thought this book was really good and had lots of things that helped me out. I liked all the examples it gave. The one thing I didn't like about the book is how there were so many examples, but they were good examples. Like the examples make it seem like the people are so good. I just felt like it needed more examples of the people doing the wrong thing, that way it's like they are learning from their mistakes. To me...that just makes it feel more realistic and I wish there was more of that. I

While it's all well and good to tell kids how to live their lives, "teens watch what you do more than they listen to what you say," Covey says. So practice what you preach. Your example can be very influential.

What a great self-help book! I loved how Sean Covey peppered the book with quotes (largely by Mark Twain, for some reason), cartoons, and little "baby steps," or examples of how one can go about practicing the seven habits in small ways. The quotes were my favorite part...that and the little vignettes by teenagers that were thrown in to demonstrated what the habits can do for you.

My mom actually bought me this book when I was a teen and I never read it, which is unfortunate because it is actually a good read, especially since I usually hate self-help books. It talks about time-management, establishing good relationships, setting goals, creating good attitudes – these are all things that everyone should work on, not just teens. The book is written in a style that teens can enjoy though. It doesn’t throw a lot of concentrated information on boring psychological stuff; it’s

I found the miniature edition of this on my shelf while cleaning up my room. I read it in 30 minutes. (One of those cleaning up, got distracted things.) I really enjoyed it. It put into words much of what I often try to express to my friends, and it gave me some extra suggestions on ways to be more effective. It's no bible or holy grail, but I found it useful and not very obnoxious.

I never would have bought this book for myself, but I got it for free (along with the Workbook) when I was in school. And so I read it. I don't remember the advice very well, but I remember wondering what the big deal was about this book. The advice felt like platitudes, and the generic "just try harder and you'll succeed" type advice is something every teen gets--and let's be honest here: how many teens are going to respond to this sort of advice? I didn't. I thought the advice was ra
