Thank you again

Hello , my name is Calvina Mcendree.
I was a teachers aid in a pre release class in Prison when I was first exposed to The Seven Habits…
What a blessing. What a game changer for the woman in the classes and for myself.
A true joy to be apart of seeing the sparks as we together experienced the paradigm shifting.
Fast forward 10 years I was in a horrific accident
In a coma and life support for 30 days.
I had a severe Traumatic brain injury with other physical disabilities .
8 year old mentally and I had to relearn to walk talk and write.
My mother and father and little brother died very shortly after unrelated to the accident.
My children were still young
It has been a struggle for sure
It’s been 15 years
By the grace of God I now have resources
The Covid situation has brought more light and awareness to disabilities.
I have started a book club via Zoom
And we’re half way through the new revised 7 Habits of Highly Effective People.
I cannot express to you how very that I am.
This is and has been a life changing book, I’m sure you are quite aware.
Thank you so much
Calvina Mcendree.

Recommend sticking with the original text

The original title, written only by Stephen R. Covey, is a classic, seminal work, by one of the most influential authors of the last century, I read it from cover to cover in 1989, the year it was first published. In fact, due to severe attention deficit problems, this was one of the few books I was able to read completely as a teenager. I still remember the feeling that I was finally reading something that made sense to my mind. The author's style is logical, uplifting, inspirational, and honest. The content is in harmony with the best books ever written. Over thirty years later, I still read (or listen) to this book at least once a year.
Regrettably, Sean Covey's additions were so distracting, so incongruent, and so condescending, I chose to quit listening after the first chapter. I have no doubt he is a good person with good intentions, and if he practices the principles taught in this and other great books, he might one day develop the wisdom, skill, and empathy, to teach like his father did.
Until then, I recommend the original.

Great listen with updates from his son.

Loved it. So practical. Fun to hear updates at the end of each chapter from his son.

POWERFUL

absolutely loved it. highly recommend to anyone that is always looking to help change and readjust.

audible version is great. it does sound like Sean has a cold at the beginning, I wanted to sneeze listening. I hope I was wrong but it did sound like he got better throughout the recordings. either way I absolutely loved it.

Always excellent!

The added comments are a wonderful addition!! I have read this book several times and this adds another depth to this amazing book.

So many great takeaways!

What I learned from this book can be used in every area of my life. It’s a long book but so much to digest I’ll probably read it again.

Just amazing

Probably the best book ever written, that can have a deep impact on everybody's life.

Solid

Solid work that is definitely a call for practical digestion and enactment. Not just a read. But the small section of 7 inhabits of ineffective people is unnecessarily a mockery of what most people actually pursue.

Principle-centered Leadership!

A must-read for all seeking to live more fully a life of principle-centered leadership! I would highly recommend this book and I am grateful for these learnings to now implement.

Encore! Encore! Encore!

A timeless classic. Any body of work based on principles will endure the test of time. Worthy of any library. Must re-read.
