More quotes by Stephen Covey
We think we see the world as it is, when in fact we see the world as we are.
Stephen Covey
Opposition is a natural part of life. Just as we develop our physical muscles through overcoming opposition - such as lifting weights - we develop our character muscles by overcoming challenges and adversity.
Stephen Covey
Would you not agree that relationships are built on trust? Would you not also agree that most individuals think more in terms of me-my wants, my needs, my rights? What would wisdom dictate - would it not direct us to focus on trust-building principles and sacrificing 'me' for 'we'?
Stephen Covey
We tend to get what we expect - both from ourselves and from others. When we expect more, we tend to get more when we expect less, we tend to get less.
Stephen Covey
Each of us guard a gate of change that can only be opened from the inside.
Stephen Covey
If the ladder is not leaning against the right wall, every step we take just gets us to the wrong place faster.
Stephen Covey
Find your voice, and inspire others to find theirs. Don't ignore that longing to make a difference.
Stephen Covey
To know and not to do is not to know.
Stephen Covey
Satisfied needs do not motivate. It's only the unsatisfied need that motivates. Next to physical survival, the greatest need of a human being is psychological survival - to be understood, to be affirmed, to be validated, to be appreciated.
Stephen Covey
Live the law of love. We encourage obedience to the laws of life when we live the laws of love.
Stephen Covey

Stephen Covey
The roots of the problems we face in the world, in our national life, and in our family and personal lives are spiritual.
Stephen Covey
Be part of the solution, not part of the problem.
Stephen Covey
When you really listen to another person from their point of view, and reflect back to them that understanding, it's like giving them emotional oxygen.
Stephen Covey
Our greatest joy and our greatest pain comes in our relationships with others.
Stephen Covey
Building and repairing relationships are long-term investments.
Stephen Covey
How you treat the one reveals how you regard the many, because everyone is ultimately a one.
Stephen Covey
Synergy: The combined effect of individuals in collaboration that exceeds the sum of their individual effects.
Stephen Covey
Management is clearly different from leadership. Leadership is primarily a high-powered, right-brain activity. It's more of an art it's based on a philosophy. You have to ask the ultimate questions of life when you're dealing with personal leadership issues.
Stephen Covey
If you don't choose to do it in leadership time up front, you do it in crisis management time down the road.
