Changed my life is a major understatement

To say that this book changed my life is a major understatement. Ever since I first listen to this book, back in the '80s, I've applied many of Stephen's processes to both my personal and professional life. I've become more efficient and more focused on my goals. I've become more successful professionally, and I reached goals that I would have thought impossible before.

It also helps you understand things

This is a good listen for anyone. Especially if you are a young adult, in the business / corporate field. It also helps you understand things, which can be used in your relationships. I have purchased copies of this, as Christmas gifts, for my subordinates and co-workers. I highly recommend it.

Great listen. Very helpful.

Great listen. Very helpful. I like his stories that put a personal spin on the habits. I'm sure from time to time I will refer back to this book and I will recommend this book to other colleagues or subordinates.

Quick fixes don't work

This book taught me why all those quick fixes don't work and how my happiness depended on my own internal work and efforts. I encourage anyone who is struggling with a similar situation or everyone for that matter to listen to this book. It'll change your perspective on life!

The 7 Habits of Highly Effective

It everyone would adopt the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, PC (being Politically Correct) would be a thing of the PAST. Most American's past time or hobby is Being OFFENDED. If The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People was adopted, our society could focus on fixing the problems that threaten the freedom and liberty that is at the foundation of America.

Benefiting my business

As a network marketer, I originally purchased this book with the intent of it benefiting my business. And while it has, I quickly realized that it was beneficial for so much more than just my business. My personal life has been hugely impacted by the things mentioned in this book - particularly by the idea that "we can choose how to respond in every situation." Its a personal development gold mine!
