Habit Three

The habits are a good foundation for teens. Sean Covey's Seven Habits of Highly effective tees with how they teach teens to live better lives.

In my favorite habit three- put first things first, there are four quadrants.

People who in fall in quadrant one are procrastinators. These people get things done with little time to spare. the procrastinator gets things done when they are of very much importance and urgency.

Quadrant two gets things done with plenty of time to spare. This person gets more done by doing important things when they are not urgent.

Quadrant three yes man gets other peoples unimportant urgent things done. This person has little time remaining for self.

Quadrant four never get any thing done. This person is a slcker.

This was a very good book and a must read for teens. This book has important life lessons.
