| Habits make or break |
Morality is essentially a synthesis of habits. As the saying goes: "Thoughts determine actions, actions determine habits, habits determine morals, and morals determine destiny." Habits have a great impact on our lives, because they are consistent, and unknowingly, affect our morals over the years. , exposes our nature, and determines our success or failure.
| Habit 1: Be Proactive—Principles of Personal Vision |
The nature of human nature is active rather than passive. Humans can not only choose the way to respond to a specific environment, but also actively create a favorable environment. Taking the initiative does not mean being reckless, causing trouble or provoking, but to make people fully aware of their responsibility to create conditions.
| Habit 2: Begin with the End in Mind—Principles of Self-Leadership |
After too many people succeed, they feel empty; after gaining fame and fortune, they find that they have sacrificed more valuable things. So it’s important that we grasp the vision that really matters and then move forward to make life meaningful.
| Habit 3: First things first—the principle of self-management |
Effective management is mastering focused management, which puts the most important things first. After the leader decides what the priorities are, rely on self-control to master the priorities, always putting them first, so as not to be swayed by feelings, emotions, or impulses.
Pareto Principle: Get 80% of the results with 20% of the activities.
Management Method Six Standards:
Harmony, Balanced Functions, Centered, People-Oriented, Flexible.
Interpersonal relationship:
The so-called emotional account stores the "dependency" that is indispensable for improving interpersonal relationships, that is, a sense of "security" when others get along with you. It is courtesy, honesty, kindness, and credit that can increase your emotional account savings. On the contrary, rudeness, contempt, coercion, and dishonesty will reduce the balance of emotional accounts, and even overdraft in the end, the interpersonal relationship will raise the alarm.
There are six ways to invest in emotional accounts:
understanding others, paying attention to small details, keeping promises, clear expectations, integrity and honesty, courage to apologize, and unconditional love.
| Habit 4: Win-Win Thinking—Principles of Interpersonal Leadership |
Win-winners see life as an arena for cooperation, not a gladiatorial arena. Most people look at things with a dichotomy: either strong or weak, and victory or defeat. In fact, the world is so big that everyone has enough space to stand, and the gains of others do not have to be regarded as their own losses.
| Habit 5: Knowing Yourself and Knowing Yourself - The Principle of Empathetic Communication |
To summarize in one sentence the most important principle I have learned in interpersonal relationships is this: Know the enemy and understand yourself - seek to understand the other person first, and then strive to let the other person understand you. This principle is the key to effective interpersonal communication.
| Habit 6: Synergy – The Principle of Creative Collaboration |
The basic mentality of synergy is this: if a person of considerable intelligence disagrees with me, then there must be a mystery to the other's proposition that I have not yet experienced, and it is worth understanding. The most important thing in working with people is to pay attention to the different psychology, emotions and intelligence of different individuals, as well as the different worlds that individuals see in their eyes. If two people agree, one of them must be redundant. There is no benefit in communicating with people who see the same thing, and there are differences to gain.
| Habit 7: Constant Renewal—Principle of Balanced Self-Renewal |
The most worthwhile investment in life is to hone yourself, because you have to rely on yourself to live and serve people, which is the most precious tool. Work itself does not bring economic security. Only with good thinking, learning, creativity and adaptability can you be invincible. Having wealth does not mean economic independence, but the ability to create wealth is truly reliable.
| Summary: Build yourself from the inside out |
The highest, best, and sweetest fruit of the Seven Habits is to work together, to be one with oneself, one lover, one friend and one coworker.
Moral Success Theory reminds people that there are basic principles for a high-efficiency life. Only when people learn and follow these principles and integrate them into their own morality can they enjoy real success and lasting happiness.

Only learning but not doing is equal to not learning, and only knowing and not doing is equal to ignorance.
