7 Habits of Highly
Successful Teens
(By Sean Covey but
modified)
Habit 4: Think Win-Win
Teens can learn to foster the belief that
it is possible to create an atmosphere of Win-Win in every relationship. This habit
encourages the idea that in any given discussion or situation both parties can
arrive at a mutually beneficial solution. Your teen will learn to celebrate the
accomplishments of others instead of being threatened by them. Win-Win is
a belief that everyone can win. It’s both nice and tough all at once. I won’t
step on you, but I won’t be your doormat either. You care about other people
and you want them to succeed. But you also care about yourself, and you want to
succeed as well. Win-Win is abundant. It is the belief that there’s plenty of
success to go around. It’s not either you or me. It’s both of us. It’s not a
matter of who gets the biggest piece of the pie. There’s more than enough food
for everyone. It’s an all-you-can-eat buffet.
Win-win always creates more. Perhaps the
most surprising benefit of thinking Win-Win is the good feelings it brings on. The
true test of whether or not you are thinking Win-Win or one of the alternatives
is how you feel. Win-Lose and Lose-Win thinking will cloud your judgment and
fill you with negative feelings.
Win-Win will fill your heart with happy and
serene thoughts. It will give you confidence. Even fill you with light. Think Win-Win
or no deal.
Choose The Right!!!
