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 this book, the 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens,
author Sean Covey 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 principle 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.
Convey himself has
done well by following a parent’s example. His dad, Convey, wrote the book The
7 Habits of Highly Successful People, which sold over 15 million copies. Sean’s
a chip off the old book, 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:
