7 Habits of Highly Successful Teens
By: Sean Covey
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 Dean 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 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 had 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!!
