The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen R. Covey is written on Covey's belief that the way we see the world is entirely based on our own perceptions. In order to change a given situation, we must change ourselves, and in order to change ourselves, we must be able to change our perceptions. We all want to succeed. And one path to success is identifying the habits that can help us on our journey. "I am not a product of my circumstances. I am a product of my decisions". Stephen Covey.
