More quotes by Stephen Covey
Public behavior is merely private character writ large.
Stephen Covey
As you begin to think more in terms of importance, you begin to see time differently.
Stephen Covey
In the last analysis, what we are communicates far more eloquently than anything we say or do.
Stephen Covey
Improve relationships with others by assuming that they can hear everything you say about them
Stephen Covey
All things are created twice. All things. Vision is the first creation. For a house it's called the blueprint. For a life it's called a mission. For a day it's called a goal and a plan. For a parent it's called a belief in the unseen potential of a child. For all, it is the mental creation which always precedes the physical, or second, creation.
Stephen Covey
Habit 1: Be Proactive Habit 2: Begin with the End in Mind Habit 3: Put First Things First Habit 4: Think Win/Win Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood Habit 6: Synergize Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw
Stephen Covey
The greatest and most inspiring mountain climbing achievements in history are not so much stories of individual achievement, but are stories of the extraordinary power of a unified, talented, prepared team that stays loyally committed to one another and to their shared vision to the end.
Stephen Covey
When the trust is high, you get the trust dividend. Investors invest in brands people trust. Consumers buy more from companies they trust, they spend more with companies they trust, they recommend companies they trust, and they give companies they trust the benefit of the doubt when things go wrong.
Stephen Covey
When people seriously undertake to identify what really matters most to them in their lives, what they really want to be and do, they become very reverent. They start to think in larger terms than today and tomorrow.
Stephen Covey
Seek to understand rather than be understood.
Stephen Covey
What does it matter how much we do if what we're doing isn't what matters most?
Stephen Covey
We must never be too busy to take time to sharpen the saw.
Stephen Covey
Principles are natural laws that are external to us and that ultimately control the consequences of our actions. Values are internal and subjective and represent that which we feel strongest about in guiding our behavior.
Stephen Covey
The environment you fashion out of your thoughts, your beliefs, your ideals, your philosophy is the only climate you will ever live in. The key is in not spending time, but in investing it.
Stephen Covey
The nature of life is to be a study of contrasts: joy/sadness, full/empty. The Main Thing is to Keep The Main Thing The Main Thing.
Stephen Covey
The key to creating passion in your life is to find your unique talents, and your special role and purpose in the world.
Stephen Covey
People who end up with the good jobs are the proactive ones who are solutions to problems, not problems themselves, who seize the initiative to do whatever is necessary to get the job done.
Stephen Covey
Without trust, the best we can do is compromise.
Stephen Covey
Effective people do two things: they strive to do excellent work, and they prioritize.
Stephen Covey
Love is a verb. Love is something you do: the sacrifices you make, the giving of self. If you want to study love, study those who sacrifice for others. Love - the feeling - is a fruit of love the verb.
Stephen Covey
