Habit 3 Put First Things First

• Organize and execute around priorities. This
  phrase represents the evolution of three
  generations of time management and how to best do
  it is the focus of a wide variety of approaches
  and materials.
• It focuses on setting goals specific long-,
  intermediate-, and short term targets which time
  and energy would be directed in harmony and
  values.

  higher way.

Habit 5 Seek First to Understand Then to Be
Understood

• Seek first to understand involves a very deep
  shift in paradigm. We typically seek first to be
  understood. Most people do not listen with the
  intent to understand, they listen with the intent
  to reply. Theyre either speaking or preparing to
  speak. They are filtering everything through
  their own paradigms, reading their autobiography
  into other peoples lives

Habit 6 Synergize

• What is Synergy? Simply defined, it means that
  the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
  It means the relationship which the parts have to
  each other is a part in and of itself. It is not
  only a part, but the most catalytic, the most
  empowering, the most unifying and the most
  exciting part.
