The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People
Powerful Lessons in Personal Change
Build effectiveness on principles and habits, not quick tricks.
Covey lays out seven habits that move a person from dependence to independence to interdependence, grounded in a character ethic rather than personality tactics. They span private victories (be proactive, begin with the end in mind, put first things first) and public ones (think win-win, seek first to understand, synergize), capped by continuous renewal.
Founders are pulled in every direction and default to urgency over importance. Covey's frameworks for prioritization, principled decision-making, and win-win negotiation are durable operating habits that compound across a career.
