"I finished this book this morning. It is a great book and it has helped me understand a lot of things. My favorite habit is habit 7 sharpen the saw, it made me think alot about the way I spend my time. There is a little storie in it about a boy who was walking through the woods and saw a man sawing viciously at a tree and the boy said "How long have you been sawing at that tree?" And he said a long long time (I don't remember how long it was exactly) and then the boy said "It looks like you need to sharpen your saw" "I don't have time" the man replied. I thought that that was kind of funny! If you haven't read it you should."
"so many things I learned from this book. Jika anda adalah seorang remaja *terlebih berjenis kelamin wanita*, then you should read this book. Saya rekom abis. Buku ini bisa membantu dalam pembentukan karakter yang baik. Gimana menghandle emosi dan memilih bertindak dalam menghadapi suatu masalah.
"This is my favorite book BY FAR because it spells out exactly everything I need to do to be an amazing young woman. Not only did it give me insight on the function of practically everything, but I NEVER GOT BORED WITH IT! I read the whole book in practically a week because it kept me so involved! I LOVE IT! READ IT!!!!"
"What a great self-help book! I loved how Sean Covey peppered the book with quotes (largely by Mark Twain, for some reason), cartoons, and little "baby steps," or examples of how one can go about practicing the seven habits in small ways. The quotes were my favorite part...that and the little vignettes by teenagers that were thrown in to demonstrated what the habits can do for you.
I definitely am planning on applying the seven habits to my life. I liked the concise way that Covey explained them. However, it was hard for me to understand some of the metaphors and examples he used to describe the habits. For instance, I found the whole "Personal Bank Account" puzzling. The idea is that you make personal "deposits" when you do good things for yourself and "withdrawls" when you let yourself down. So I'm supposed to keep track of the balance?
Some of his points, like that one, I couldn't get my head around. For the most part, though, I really liked this book and would recommend it to teenagers everywhere. I liked the resources in the back of the book too -- very cool!"
