This week I’d like you to know a book that has been really influential in my life, especially in my work experience. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People is a self-help classic. Here’s an animated summary with reading questions. As always, watch first without subtitles. It’s also a good idea to watch a little bit at a time (every day!) rather than try to do everything at once:
Questions:
What is a reactionary person compared to a Proactive person?
What are the 7 Habits, list them and then let’s discuss them. Which one is your favorite?
What do you think about this theory of Highly Effective People? Can you think of an example of someone who uses these skills?
What other vocabulary is new to you from this video?
Are there any books you’ve read that made you learn something about your life or work and your approach to it?
