Continuous Self Improvement Challenge
Inspiration
I watched THE 7 HABITS OF HIGHLY EFFECTIVE PEOPLE BY STEPHEN COVEY - ANIMATED BOOK REVIEW presented by FightMediocrity on YouTube this morning and I felt inspired. In general, I hear that habits take 18 days to form, give or take depending on your source.
I’m going to take a set of Habits I want to focus on and repeat them for 18 days, documenting my journey along the way.
What is the purpose of this challenge?
I want to build a habit. Plain and simple. The habit I want to build is a habit of continuously improving myself. Honestly, I’m not the person clicking the “3 Ways To Be A Better Blah…”. I don’t believe it.
There is so much advice on how to do things better that I must ignore it. I’m going to take a different path, rather than reading a bunch of articles on how to improve myself, I’m going to actually do something.
How will I do it?
My plan is fairly simple, I’m going to write a post each day for 18 days describing how I will, or have, executed on each habit. I have chosen a set of habits to track based on the video.
Habits
- 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
