Habit 7 of 7: Sharpen the Saw
Picture it... There is a pile of logs in front of you. And each needs to be sawed in half. So, you put one up on the block and make short work of it. The next one takes a little longer, but you keep going. Soon, it's obvious you're not... Continue reading

Habit 6 of 7: Synergize
Synergy has become something of a corporate buzzword - right alongside "value proposition" and "differentiator". But the concept is a good one. Most simply put, synergy means "two heads are better than one". Napoleon Hill invokes this idea as the Mastermind Principle in Think and Grow Rich. And Jim Collins... Continue reading

Strategies for 2011
Life is pretty damn awesome as we all begin to get down and dirty with 2011 and all it has to offer, although it probably feels impossible to do everything you want to this year. It’s hard to even know where to start. This is where it helps to have a strategic mindset to help out a bit. As I’ve ...

Habit 5 of 7: Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood
Yesterday afternoon, I was talking with a co-worker. Just chit-chat really. Exchanging stories about where we grew up, our families, etc. I didn't realize until after the conversation that I could remember virtually nothing about the other person (think about the recon I'll need to do to re-discover this information...

Habit 4 of 7: Think Win-Win
Habit 4 teaches us to always seek arrangements that are mutually beneficial. Pretty straightforward, right? Of course, we know we don't want Lose-Win. "The auto mechanic ripped me off!" But what about Win-Lose? "You do this for me and I will do nothing for you in return." Arriving at a... Continue reading

Habit 3 of 7: Put First Things First
Stop me if you've heard this one... There is a large, glass container on the table. Next to that a few big rocks and a bucket of tiny pebbles. They can all fit in the glass container. But put the pebbles in first and all the big rocks will not... Continue reading

Habit 2 of 7: Begin with the End in Mind
So, Habit 1 is simply to be Pro-active as opposed to Re-active. To use a computer analogy - being the programmer instead of just following the program set for you by others. --- The gist of Habit 2 is basically indentifying your personal principles and living accordingly. Here's an exercise... Continue reading
