Thanks for this excellent summary of the 7 points Covey is making. Very good to see those a couple of years on from reading the book.
Quite simply, you can not lead others if you can't lead yourself, you will never achieve or gain success without first understanding yourself. That's why the first 3 Habits of this book are all focused inwards on Self. This book is one of the best personal leadership books ever.
Napoleon Hill's book 'Think and Grow Rich' started it all tho, it's not just a book but a manual. All other personal development books are based on this one. Understanding that I can direct/change my life, achieve anything, gain peace and happiness by focusing and directing my thoughts, mindsets & beliefs leading me to behavior differently with actions that will bring me exactly what I desire.
If you know what you really want...Read Napoleon Hill's book and develop the 7 Habits!
Humey, thanks for your comment. I agree that Think and Grow Rich has a lot of practical advice on being successful, but I don't like that it also contains some pseudo-scientific nonsense about cosmic energies and forces. I share more of my thoughts on that book in my review.
Thank you for putting so much detail in your review. It helps to look back over this material to try to apply it again. This book can take a while to grasp. Thanks again for sharing in your studies.
A very nice book and it's helps a lot, and thanks for the summary, it's owesome and clearly you will understand easily, thanks once again for sharing your idea,God bless

I still recommend reading it, even if you find the summary helpful. The full book is worthwhile!

Thank you! I enjoy it too; I've read it 3 times.
Having read it a few times too, along with attending the seminars and training as a 7 Habits facilitator, I find these brief summaries to the point and insightful. And, I agree with you about still reading it to get more out of it.
Thank you for the review, the reminder, and your rendering of these powerful principles!

Thank you for this review. I’ve had this book for a few years, I keep putting it aside to read and do other things. I think this will be next. 😃
