Proactive

(back to posts)


Stephen Covey wrote "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People". His message would have been stronger if he had stopped after the first habit: "Be proactive".

"Proactive people can carry their own weather with them. Whether it rains or shines makes no difference to them. (...) The difference between people who exercise initiative and those who don't is literally the difference between night and day. (...) I'm talking about a 5,000-plus percent difference, particularly if they are smart, aware, and sensitive to others." - Stephen Covey
