"Start with what is right, rather than what is acceptable."-Peter F. Drucker

The author is attempting to convey the idea known as what is acceptable within the terms of society is not always correct. What may seem acceptable with in society may not always be the correct action, these "acceptable" actions are usually created through the preference of the populace and their own obscured perceptions of the world. Beliefs among a community is a perfect example suppose a community does not accept individuals who ingest chocolate, and suppose you are being raised with in this community so you are repeatedly taught to uphold these beliefs, but once you explore the world you perceive that the exterior communities accept individuals who ingest chocolate, so at this point you can ask yourself "the shunning of these individuals was deemed correct with in my community, but was it the correct action to participate with in?" So you must never subject toward populace opinion and actions which are "acceptable".

Summary and Reflection

                    Summary Reflection

An elderly man returned money he had claimed to have stolen from a sears in Seattle, Washington. It was said the man walked in to the sears and traversed onto the second floor, he then proceeded to  hand the sears envelope that carried a letter explaining his crime and a one hundred dollar compensation. The customers reacted by exclaiming "awesome, an act of kindness.

Reflection: This was a kind act.The man must have suffered for many years harboring that guilt, but now he can relieve himself. I now know guilt can constrict around the mind and allow neurological connections to react to such an event for a long time therefore imprinting the event into your memory. I am glad the man had attempted to relieve his guilt. I  believe any miniscule crime can result in the feeling that constricts around your mind and results in powerful reactions known as guilt.

Extracting the most benefit from a session

Here are some tips to help your group extract the most benefit from a study session:

·       Decide what you are going to do in advance.

·       Prepare for a session, in order to benefit from your time as a group.

·       Distribute teaching duties in order to reinforce your knowledge.

·       Focus upon the session’s topic.

---

By supplementing your individual study with a study group, you can reinforce what you have learned, deepen your understanding of complex subjects, and even acquaint yourself with new individuals.

Remember that a person who is a friend encourages you to exhibit your maximum potential and achieve your goals, one who encourages you to attempt to try a complex and proper activity. If someone tries to corrupt you and attempts to ruin your life, then those are not friends, (they are actually your enemies), and you must avoid them. Whoever said learning cannot be enjoyable? Learning is enjoyable and enticing when you study with others.

"Nobody ever did, or ever will, escape the consequences of his/her choices."-Albert A. Montapert

I agree with this statement, we will never be able to escape the consequences that accompany our actions. When our judgement is shrouded by a motivation we act and ignore the consequences that will accompany our actions. At that moment we are only focused on the compensation that we will recieve from the participation upon such an action. No one ever escape the consequences of his or her action, actions manifest consequences. Consequences either benefit the individual or corrupt the individual.

"Choosing what is right is always the right choice you can make."- Alex Linares

I agree with this statement; i believe this statement is correct. We are expected to grow into proper citizens and express our favoring for the rules of society and government. When we are children we percieve the world differently, we are highly impressionable, in these stages of our life we learn what is right and what is wrong through experience. When we perform an action and told that it is an improper action we understand the severity of the action. Society and the government set rules and moral codes by which the populace must abide by. This is the aspect that society controls within our lives. We learn about the severity of the crimes if we were to take part in these actions. But we have a sense of judgement. The sense of judgement will help us evaluate a situation and decide what is the right thing to do, through these experiences we learn what is right or wrong and we learn that we must choose what is right in order to evade punishment.

" If you do what is right, you have no need to fear."-Anonymous
I agree with the quote. The negativity that has spread throughout this world torments our minds everyday and will forever. I believe that right can be equated toward light and light naturally shields from darkness which can be equated toward the wrong. The world that we walk upon is plauged by convolution and corruption, we must shield ourselves from the corruption by choosing what is right. Society expects many of us to be proper civilians the community bestows us with certain responsibilities and we must evaluate the responsibilities and partake in the actions that result in prosperaty. Our own judgement can either plauge us with darkness or shield us from the darkness, we must build resilience against influence that we evaluate are improper. Through proper judgement we will never fear the world.

Habit 7: Sharpen the saw

Youths should never be too busy in order to renew themselves. When youths “sharpen the saw” they are preserving their personal “self-sharp” in order to function properly. “Sharpening the saw” expresses the need for routine rejuvenation and strengthening the four key dimensions of life- the body, heart, mind, and soul

---

1.    Body: Eat wholesome fruits and vegetables, Consume protein from animalistic sources and non-animalistic sources such as legumes, Avoid illegal drugs, smoking, tobacco, alcohol, and tattooing.

Habit 6: Synergize

Synergy is achieved when two individuals produce a product that is much better than if the individuals had worked in solitude on the project. Through this habit, children learn that they must consider the ideas of other group members. Synergy allows children to value differences and appreciate others. Synergy is the reward, the fruit that you will gather, you will gather this fruit In a vast quantity once you acquire more habits such as the win-win habit and the habits known as seeking first to understand. Learning to synergize can be equated toward forming V shape formations with others instead of working in solitude. You will be amazed

At your productivity level. Synergy does not just initiate. Synergy is a process. You have to achieve synergy. The foundation that is necessary for synergy is: Learn to celebrate differences.

A proper band is a sign of synergy. It is not just the percussion instruments, or the guitar, or the saxophone, or the vocalist. It is the unification of the band. Each band member introduces his or her strengths in order to produce something that could not be produced in solitude. No other instrument is more important than the instrument known as difference.

 " So often in our quest to be more popular we loose sight of things that are far more important."-Sean Covey
Many children want to be popular, they want to feel appreciated by a community of "cool people" and therefore exhibit their naive attitude and delusional perception. Many children idealize the idea of being popular, but these children are willing to defy the authorative figures and societal establishment. These children who eventually befriend "popular" children or miscreants will dissipate their objectives and expose their need for attention and delusional ideals. These children will prove that they have no limits when the situation pretains to the subject of popularity. Many children will pierce their ears or other parts, many will wear clothes exhibiting profanity but for what purpose! Many of these youths want to establish friendships with miscreants! I have seen Youth's academic proficiency decline due to the fact that they want to establish a friendship with a community of people who have no future!

Habit 2: Begin with the end in Mind

If children are not clear about what they want to do in their lifetime, they may not be sure about their values, their goals, and their ideals. Help your child create their own proper objective which will serve as their template and through that template they will build a road that will act as their guide toward the decision making process.

“Keep your eyes on the price.” Determine your objectives and persevere until they have realized and achieved their objective. Then set another goal or objective that you would proceed to achieve.

---

Begin with the achievement of your particular objective and visualize then realize. Start by targeting your objective cerebrally: you have to know what you want to achieve.

One objective you must establish for yourself is the prize of an honorable graduation from high school- but you must receive your diploma honestly and with integrity.

" Whether i fail or succeed shall be no man's but my own. I am the force."- Elaine Maxwell

This satement is a proper statement. Whether or not  we succeed is our doing. We produce the outcomes that are evaluated as success or no success. We as humans are responsible for our own proper perception of the world around us, whether to choose what is right or choose what is wrong these actions are therefore evaluated by the populace and we will be held accountable for our actions. We must not blame anyone else for the mistakes we have made that are associated with our doing. We may be a proactive force within our life or a force of inactivity. The distinctions throughout the forces are rather easy to understand one leads toward success and the the other one does not. There are other external forces that may intervene with our force of success or external forces that may strengthen the force of insuccess and these are improper influences, but we must not astray from the path of proactivity.

Habit 1: Be proactive

Being proactive is the key to the discovery of other habits. Help your child take control and responsibility of his or her own life. Proactive individuals understand that they are responsible for their own happiness or sorrow. They do not blame others for their own actions

---

Or feelings. Proactive people realize that they are in control, that they are the captain of their own life: that they are in control of their own, decisions, thoughts, goals, actions, and priorities. Proactive people are catalysts: They do not wait to be told what they are supposed to do, they assume control of their life and enthusiastically navigate toward their own achievement, their duties, their actions, and their own responsibilities, Their obligations. Choosing to do what is right is a proactive decision. Obey the rules. Obey the law. Obey you instructors. Obey with exactness, and you will achieve what you want to achieve. So be proactive and intuitive.

7 Habits Of HIghly Successful Children

7 Habits of Highly Successful Children

For children, life is not a playground it is a jungle. And, being the parent of a child is not an easy task. In this book the “Habits of highly successful children,” the author Sean Covey attempts to provide “a compass that provides a proper learning establishment for a parent and a child and their daily encounters.”

How will they deal with peer pressure? Motivation? Success or lack there of? The life of a child is filled with tough inconveniences and life changing decisions. As a parent, you are responsible for helping them adapt toward the principles and ethics of a proper civilian, and though your teachings they will have a successful life.

While it is proper to instruct children upon the process of life navigation, “children will be heavily influenced by their parents and therefore learn from them,” Covey states. So practice your sermons, your example can be very influential.

Covey himself has done well by following a parent’s example. His dad, Stephen Covey, wrote the book “ Habits of Highly Successful people,” which sold over 15 million copies, Sean is like his father and therefore is not lazy. His own book has sold over 2 million copies. Here are some of the habits listed, and some ideas for helping you child understand and apply the skills.

"Nothing is ever gained from doing what is wrong"-Wilford Woodruff

I agree with this statement nothing is gained from doing what is wrong. Doing what is wrong detracts from your morality your ideals, The corruption that plauges you mind detracting your own inhibitions. When you do what is right many beneficial results are gained, doing what is right will enlighten the individual who had chosen the right. We are taught as children to envision what is right as an enlighting force, but we are also taught to envision what is wrong as a force of corruption. We live in a societal world in which you are expected to be a proper citizen. But you have the freedom to embody what is right or what is wrong.

" Goodneess is the only investment that never fails."- Henry David Thoreau

I agree, if we invest effort in beneficial and proper actions we will be compensated. The investment in proper activities or "goodness" will never fail to compensate the donor of his effort to act properly. Investment is a word usually associated with financial and economic studies. Investment through a philosophical point of view retains the same meaning. If we were to properly invest our time into a proper activity, we would probably benenfit from the activity. If we were to invest our time in an atrocious activity we will be compensated improperly, through a misfortunate situation. Many investments may benefit the investor through time, If the investor was required to invest effort and did not muster enough effort, the investor might have failed and will nonetheless be compensated through what is known as criticism and encouragement, these driving forces illustrate  survival through effort, if you were critcized? would you not invest much more effort in the area in which you were criticized. Choosing what is right is one of the many investment that does not fail, the effort you displace in choosing what is right, will always be beneficial.
