Good book for knowing all stages of life likewise work life balance

it is the one of the most life changing/perception changing books that I ever read. first time I read the book in 1998 when I am studying in class 12. Today I am working as General Manager in CPSU and suddenly some content come to my mind suddenly and then I decided to read this book again to reap the benefits. Since I get the stuffs from this book which helps to inculcate the habits that helps me to excel in life I decided to write a review about the book, so that others may be benefited. It must be for every people either he is a student/professional/corporater, its guides you at every steps. Perception is the most important thing that hekps to excel in life is one of the most profound things that I assimilate from this book. Perception may not be changed in years but may change instanenouly and once your perception changes in positive direction you may achieve anything, is the crux of book. "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People" by Stephen Covey is a self-help and personal development book that offers a holistic approach to effectiveness and success. Covey presents a framework of seven habits that can help individuals become more proactive, focused on personal growth, and able to achieve their goals. The seven habits are: Be Proactive: Taking initiative and responsibility for one's actions. Begin with the End in Mind: Defining one's values and goals before taking action. Put First Things First: Prioritizing and focusing on important tasks. Think Win-Win: Cultivating a mindset of mutual benefit and collaboration. Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood: Listening actively before communicating. Synergize: Working effectively with others to create solutions greater than the sum of individual efforts. Sharpen the Saw: Continuous self-improvement and renewal in the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects. Covey's book emphasizes the importance of personal integrity, principles-centered living, and aligning one's actions with core values. By adopting these habits, individuals can enhance their effectiveness in both personal and professional aspects of their lives.

Perfect book, go for it.

Good book

Arrived in perfect condition. No tears or rips. No defects whatsoever that I can see. I have been searching for self-development books to dive into, ones which are actually helpful AND enjoyable to read. Truthfully, it’s a rather challenging task these days. This is one of those books I had seen on numerous occasions and heard about in passing over the years, but I never actually read it. It was originally published in 1989, and it is still a self-help staple in 2025. Knowing this, I decided to buy it. I immediately began reading it upon receiving it; I am on page 75. So far, so good. Though the author does speak in circles at times (overly wordy as is the way of self-help gurus), it is still very informative and enjoyable to read. I am reading this along with The Let Them Theory by Mel Robbins (a more recent entry into the genre). I tried reading The 5AM Club, but it was far too cheesy and essentially just a bunch of quotes squeezed into a dumb, fictional story line for whatever reason. I much prefer this format; it’s professional, to the point, and elaborates on actual techniques (principles) for improving your life with examples. There’s a reason this is still popular more than 30 years later. Great for revisiting as you try to master each habit; it can be used as a kind of reference book. This is the main reason I purchased a physical copy. It’s on par with Dale Carnegie’s classic imo. Writing simple, yet helpful, self-development books is becoming a lost art. Honestly, for the most part, new releases in this genre truly just revisit concepts which were originally introduced decades, or even centuries, ago with different wording. I’m noticing this more and more. I mean, there is kind of a finite number of ways to effectively improve your life, a set of tried and true principles if you will, and most, if not all, were discussed by the 90s or way before then (many stoics and philosophers were masters of this). Even The Let Them Theory isn’t exactly revolutionary. It’s just gained popularity now because of Mel Robbins’ writing style and overall reach; she didn’t really discover the idea. While different wording is used, the basic idea is actually even discussed in the 7 Habits book. I’ve come to realize the point of the modern self-help book is not to necessarily introduce new ideas, but to elaborate on older, yet still relevant, content and ideas and make them more accessible and digestible for everyday people. These types of books introduce different interpretations and angles of those ideas to help us find the verbiage which most resonates with us as individuals. Stephen Covey does a fine job of this for me personally, and I’ve found myself nodding along while reading. His book is one of the few truly relatable AND helpful books I’ve come across in the genre, and it is a great one to add to your self-help library.

Thank you!

كتاب جميل مفيد طلبته لبنتي ما تحب تقرأ كتب بالعربي وبنفس الوقت احب اشتري الكتاب بلغة الكاتب

I also have the book, but got this CD for a friend who isn't a great reader. Considering the size of the book, which I haven't finished reading yet, it was much shorter than I expected - may be 60 to 90mins. In that time though you hear about the 7 habits, how they work, why they should be adopted and how you might practice them. I think this CD gives a really good overview of the habits with enough detail to start applying them. The person I brought it for listens to it repeatedly and has started applying some of the principles to his life. I may be biased as a natural bookworm, but I still want to go away and read the book to really digest the 7 habits, but this is really good for people who don't have the time or natural affinity to reading .

Un libro per me assolutamente da leggere almeno una volta nella vita. Dice cose alle volte scontate, ma aiuta a riflettere su quello che per ciascuno è importante.
