Informationen
The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People: Powerful Lessons in Personal Change was a groundbreaker when it was first published in 1990, and it continues to be a business bestseller with more than 10 million copies sold. Stephen Covey, an internationally respected leadership authority, realizes that true success encompasses a balance of personal and professional effectiveness, so this book is a manual for performing better in both arenas. His anecdotes are as frequently from family situations as from business challenges. Before you can adopt the seven habits, you'll need to accomplish what Covey calls a "paradigm shift"--a change in perception and interpretation of how the world works. Covey takes you through this change, which affects how you perceive and act regarding productivity, time management, positive thinking, developing your "proactive muscles" (acting with initiative rather than reacting), and much more. This isn't a quick-tips-start-tomorrow kind of book. The concepts are sometimes intricate, and you'll want to study this book, not skim it. When you finish, you'll probably have Post-it notes or hand-written annotations in every chapter, and you'll feel like you've taken a powerful seminar by Covey. --Joan Price

Rezensionen
Move Over, Dale Carnegie!
Lesen
This is a seminal work of epic proportions. Covey has produced the new bible for human relations and personal achievement.I find myself referring to "Seven Habits" in my sermons and every day conversations.The enormity of his genius is incredible! Everyone that can read fluently should read and re-read his amazing book. Even the most die-hard skeptic will come away enlightened. Move over, Mr. Carnegie!You have rarified company.
Classic Personal Development Publication
Lesen
I have read and re-read this book a number of times since I first purchased a copy in 1996. Everytime something in it takes on new meaning. I particularly like the fact that it is quite concise for the subject matter it covers and provides an excllent framework from which to commence a personal journey of self improvement - if you've not read it, do so - the clock is ticking.
Inspiring
Lesen
This is basically a self help psychology book. I had read it previously and found it very inspiring. After reading 1776, I realized "7 habits" had a lot in common with George Washington, who I now adore as an astonishing patriot and hero; and would like to model my life and character similar to Washington's. Except for the wooden teeth.
Buy the Book
Lesen
Buy the book and avoid the audio CD. Good principles but delivery of the narrator is flat and monotone. The musical interludes between topics are annoying. The pace of the narration is too slow. The best excerpt is a live recording of Stephen Covey at a presentation, many others are tedious.
The book is a quick and valuable read, the audio CD is too long and ponderous.
