This Week's Challenge:  Pause Between Stimulus....and Response

When people are reactive, they allow outside influences to control their response.

When people are proactive, they pause to allow themselves to choose their response based on principles and desired results.

- Think about the day ahead of you and anticipate one thing that might push your reactive buttons.

- Decide now what you can do to be proactive

Ask Yourself:  How could I respond proactively the next time I face a highly charged situation?

"Between what happens to us and our response is a space, and the key to our growth and happiness is how we use that space."  - Stephen R. Covey

This Week's Challenge:  "Check Your Paradigms"...Check My What?

par·a·digm (perəˌdīm) noun meaning a typical example or pattern of something; a model.

Paradigms are the way we see, understand, and interpret the world - our mental map.

- List five words that describe how you feel about an important aspect of your life.

- What do these words tell you about your paradigm?

- Identify how your paradigm needs to change to achieve your goals.

Ask yourself:  How accurate are my paradigms?

"If you want to make minor changes in your life, work on your behavior.  But if you want to make significant, quantum breakthroughs, work on your paradigms."

- Stephen Covey

Like the top of a tree, our personality is what people see first.  Although appearance, techniques, and skills can influence our success, the real source of lasting effectiveness lies in a strong character...the roots.

- Think of a person with excellent character.

- Define some of the principles they live by.

- Which of those principles would you like to implement?

- Do something today to act on those principles.

Ask Yourself:  Have I focused on quick fixes at the expense of my character?

"People who live by the character ethic have strong roots...deep roots.  They withstand the stresses of life, and they keep growing and progressing."

- Stephen Covey
