Begin with the End in Mind
Start with a clear destination to determine your steps. Identify your values and live by them.
- Visualize in detail your own funeral. What are they saying about how you lived your life, and your relationships? What do you want them to say? Change your priorities accordingly.
- Break down different roles in your life -Â whether professional, personal or in a community. List 3-5 goals you want to achieve for each.Â
- Define what scares you and write down exactly how you'll handle it.

The 8th Habit Of Highly Effective People
The Eighth Qualitative Habit
It's related to your ability to act instead of reacting when things don’t go your way.
Your reactivity impacts your attitude, performance, effectiveness and how others perceive you.
Act instead of reacting
The real distress from an unpleasant situation comes from the reaction to the situation, not from the initial event itself.
If you can avoid reacting when uncontrollable events happen, you can reduce your stress and improve your effectiveness and well-being.Â
Hold your reaction and observe the situation with curiosity from a bird's eye view.
Practicing Self-Regulation
Self-Regulation is the ability to stay calm and collected in the middle of a distressing situation.
Develop the skill to see the initial situation and your reaction to it separately. Self-regulation (self-calming) helps you recognize your emotions and not to react based on your emotions.

The Only Thing You Need To Remember About The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People
Time management matrix
At the beginning of every week, write a two-by-two matrix on a blank sheet of paper.
One side of the matrix says "urgent" and "not urgent". The other side of the matrix says "important"...
Quadrant 1: Urgent-Important
These are the most pressing tasks we'll likely get to this week. When we do fire-fighting, it's all relating to stuff in this quadrant.
Quadrant 2: Not Urgent - Important
These are the things that matter in the long-term but will offer no concrete benefits right now or even this year. They are things we know we need to get to but probably will push off.Â
