This is an overview of the first three, or the "private victory" of building an effective life. Stephen Covey's 7 Habits of Highly Effective People has been such a powerful and transformative part of my life, I wanted to cover it with you. From reading it for the first time at 23 years old to really living out these habits, as best I can, for decades. This is a conversation explaining and story telling around the first three habits; Be Proactive, Begin with the End in Mind and Put First Things First.
