In The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, author Stephen R. Covey presents a holistic, integrated, principle-centered approach for solving personal and professional problems. With penetrating insights and pointed anecdotes, Covey reveals a step-by-step pathway for living with fairness, integrity, honesty, and human dignity -- principles that give us the security to adapt to change and the wisdom and power to take advantage of the opportunities that change creates.Something Everyone should read - Very helpful in breaking down common misconceptions of how people succeed or don't succeed in life. - This book can be applied to anyone's life, job, skillset, etc... - Much of what is in this book can be considered common sense to me, but Dr. Covey does a great job in putting this common sense in understandable language. - I'd recommend this book especially for anyone functioning in a business capacity, or politicians (especially politicians). Today's politicians are out of tune with the Character Ethic.
