Seven Habits Intro: Inside Out

Habit is what keeps you going.” Jim Rohn “Successful people are simply those with successful habits.” Brian Tracy “Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet.

Seven Habits #1: Be Proactive

February 19, 2023

Readings “I fairly sizzle with zeal, energy, and enthusiasm; eager to do that which ought to be done be me today.” Charles Fillmore “You cannot control what happens to you, but you can control your attitude toward what happens to you, and in that, you will be mastering change rather than allowing it to master you.” Brain Tracy “When you can’t control what’s happening, challenge yourself to control the way you respond to what’s happening. That’s where your power is.” Keith A Turner Sr “The victim mindset dilutes the human potential. By not accepting personal responsibility for our circumstances, we greatly reduce our power to change them.” Steve Maraboli “Whenever we try to avoid responsibility for our behavior, we give that responsibility to another person along with powers.” Scott Peck “The choices we make are ultimately our responsibility.” Eleanor Roosevelt “It’s only when you take responsibility for your life, that you discover how powerful you truly are!” Allanah Hunt

Readings: “Would you tell me please which way you walk from here?” Alice “That depends a good deal on where you want to get to,” said the Cat. “I don’t much care where-“ said Alice. “Then it doesn’t matter which way to walk,” said the Cat “Every man who accomplishes things sees first in his mind what he wishes to do. He puts away all doubt. It makes no difference how small or how large the thing you want to do may be; if you have an unlimited confidence in your ability to do it, you will do.” Charles Fillmore “Great works are performed not by strength but by perseverance.” Samuel Johnson “The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be.” Ralph Waldo Emerson “To lose patience is to lose the battle.” Mahatma Gandhi
