7 Habits
of Highly Successful Teens
By Sean Covey
For teens, life is not a playground, it’s a jungle. And,
being the parent of a teenager isn’t any walk in the park, either. In his book,
The 7 Habits of Highly
Effective Teens, author Sean Convey attempts to provide “a compass to
help teens and their parents navigate the problems they encounter daily.”
How will they deal
with peer pressure? Motivation? Success or lack thereof? The life of a teenager
is full of tough issues and life-changing decisions. As a parent, you are
responsible to help them learn the principles and ethics that will help them to
reach their goals and live a successful life.
While it’s all well and good to tell kids how to live their
lives, “teens watch what you do more than they listen to what you say,” Covey
says. So practice what you preach. Your example can be very influential.
Covey himself has done well by following a parent’s example.
His dad, Stephen Covey, wrote the book The 7
Habits of Highly Successful People, which sold over 15 million copies.
Sean’s a chip off the old block, and no slacker. His own book has rung in a
more than respectable 2 million copies sold. Here are his seven habits, and
some ideas for helping your teen understand and apply them.
Choose
The Right!!!
