7 Habits of Highly Successful Student Habit 1

( by: Sean Covey but modified)


Habit 1: Be Proactive
Being proactive is the key to unlocking the other habits. Help your  teen take control and responsibility for her life. Proactive people understand that they are responsible for their own happiness or unhappiness. They don’t blame others for their own actions or feelings. Proactive people realize that the ball is their court, that they are the captain of their own ship; they are in control, control of their decisions, thoughts, choices, decisions,, goals actions and priorities. Proactive people are self-starters; they don’t wait to be told what to do, they press forward with enthusiasm toward the achievement of their assignment, their duties, their responsibilities, their obligations. Choosing to do what is right is a proactive decision. Obey rules. Obey the coach. Obey the school policies. Obey with exactness, and great things will come to you. Be proactive and take initiative.
