ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People" by Stephen R. Covey, explores a principle-centered approach to personal and interpersonal effectiveness. The book contrasts the personality ethic, which focuses on quick fixes and techniques, with the character ethic, emphasizing integrity and fundamental principles. It guides the reader through a journey of self-improvement by first focusing on personal independence through proactivity, envisioning a purpose, and prioritizing tasks. It then transitions to interdependence by fostering win-win interactions, understanding others, and valuing differences. Finally, it emphasizes the necessity for continuous renewal in all aspects of life. The book encourages readers to shift their paradigms and build a foundation of character and principles to achieve true and lasting success.
