habit 6: synergize


                          7 habits of highly successful teens
                                            habit 6
Habit 6: synergize
Synergy is achieved when two or more people work together to create something better than either could be alone. Through this habit, teens learn it doesn’t have to be “your way” or “my way” but rather a better way, a higher way. Synergy allows teens to value differences and better appreciate others. synergy is the reward, the delicious fruit you’ll taste as you get better at living the other habits, especially at thinking Win-Win and seeking first to understand. Learning to synergize is like learning to form V formations with others instead of trying to fly through life solo. You’ll be amazed at how much faster and farther you’ll go. Synergy doesn’t just happen. It’s a process. You have to get there. And the foundation of getting there is a process. You have to get there. And the foundation of getting there is this: learn to celebrate differences.
A good band is a great example of synergy. It’s not just the drums, or the guitar, or the sax, or the vocalist, it’s all of them together that make up the
“sound.” Each band member brings his or her strengths to the table to create something better than each could alone. No instrument is more important than another. Just different.

habit 3 : put first things first

                             7 habits of highly successful teens

Habit 3: put first things first
Habit three is about will and will not power. This habit helps teens prioritize and manage their time so that they focus on and complete the most important things in their lives. Putting first things first also means learning to overcome fears and being strong during difficult times. It’s life according to what matters most. Putting first things first deals with things that are:
important or not important, urgent or not urgent. Let’s look at the four quadrants of time management.

Quadrant 1: things that are important and urgent
Quadrant 2: things that are important But NOT urgent
Quadrant 3: things that are NOT important but are urgent
1.     Important & urgent
2.     Important but NOT urgent
3.     NOT important but are urgent
4.     NOT important and not urgent
Quadrant 2 is the ideal place to spend our time, doing things that are important but not urgent. Here’s where priorities come into play. The results for living quadrant 2 are:
·        Control of your life
·        Balance
·        High performance
So, in what quadrant are you spending most of your time? the key is to shift as much time as possible into quadrant 2 and this is accomplished by planning. Spend more time planning and incorporating the most important things first, things that matter most. Keep your eyes on the prize and reach for it.
