Seven Habits: proactive, end-to-end, important first, win-win thinking, knowledgeable, integrated and effective, constantly updated
Habits are the intersection of knowledge, skills, and willingness. Knowledge is what to do and why to do, skill is how to do, and willingness is motivation ------ want to do. All three must be together to form a habit.
Habits have a huge gravity ------- more powerful than what most people recognize or are willing to admit. Breaking a deep-rooted habit requires a lot of effort, and it generally involves major changes in life.

Habit 1 proactive -------- principle of personal vision

Three values: Experience Value -------- from experience to creation value -------- from personal originality attitude value -------- is the response to the dilemma such as being suffering from a severe illness.
Adversity can often stimulate the transformation of thinking, so that people can view the world, themselves and others with a new perspective, examine the meaning of life, and then think about how to deal with it, this broader perspective reflects the improvement and encouragement of attitudes and values of all people.
Taking the initiative is not just a brave move, but a provocation, but a task of making people fully aware that they have the responsibility to create conditions.
Taking the initiative is a necessary condition for realizing the productivity and output of life. It is no exception for cultivating seven habits. The other six habits of this book are based on initiative. Every habit inspires you to take the initiative.
Problems can be divided into three types: directly controllable (problems are related to their own behaviors) and indirectly controllable (problems are related to others' behaviors) and uncontrollable ).
There are two ways to directly grasp your life: one is to make a commitment and keep it; the other is to establish a goal and put it into practice.
Famous saying: the most encouraging fact is that humans can take the initiative to increase the value of life -------- Henry. David. Solo American writer and philosopher
Habit 2 starts from the end -------- the Principle of Self-leadership
Everything is created twice. When we do anything, we first conceive in our minds, that is, intelligence or first creations, and then put them into practice, that is, physical or second creation.
The principle is based on self-leadership, but leadership is different from management. Leadership is the first creation, which must be prior to management and the second creation by managers.
Only participation can be recognized.
Habit 3 is the first -------- principles of self-management
Effective management is to master the key-point management, which puts the most important thing first. After the leaders decide what the focus is, they will rely on self-control to grasp the focus, always put them first, one side is influenced by feeling, emotion or impulse.
Habit 1 tells you that "you are the creator and you control your own life" is based on four unique talents of mankind, that is, imagination, conscience, independent will, and the most important self-consciousness.
Habit 2 is about the first creative or intellectual creative habit. Its principle is based on the two talents of imagination and conscience. Imagination is a kind of ability to perceive ahead of time. It is an understanding of the potential and creativity that cannot be seen with your own eyes. conscience is the ability to discover the unique characteristics of everyone, conscience is responsible for guiding individuals in terms of ethics. This habit is closely related to our basic mindset and our highest expectations and values.
Habit 3 refers to the second habit of creation or physical creation. It refers to the implementation, execution, and natural manifestation of the first two habits. It requires us to use our will to achieve a goal, that is, to arrange life based on principles.
