- The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People: Powerful Lessons in Personal Change
Balloon Juice I finally decided to read The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. I had purchased it some time ago and recently determined that now was the time to read this self-help classic. What a COLOSSAL disappointment! I am amazed that this mediocrity is so popular. I found it to be little more than 1980s managerial balloon juice.From âparadigm shift,â to âthink Win/Win,â to (ugh) âsynergy,â there is no empty self-help cliché left unturned. I should have stopped reading the first time I saw the word âsynergy.â (I get countless âbusiness proposalsâ in my email every day and, if I bother to skim any of them at all, I delete them as soon as the word âsynergyâ makes an appearance.) No word represents the trite emptiness of this book better than âsynergyâ â except maybe the verb form of the word: âsynergize,â or the adjective âsynergistic,â or the adverb âsynergistically.â But they are all here.

Absolutely phenomenal I rarely if ever leave reviews on purchases, but I felt the need to share this one. I’ve spent the past several years trying to figure out what I was doing wrong when it came to happiness. I had every reason to be happy, but yet felt this deep hollowness inside. I’ve tried all the positive thinking quick fixes, meditation, law of attraction, etc. Nothing seemed to click or “cure” this aching inside. It wasn’t until I read the 7 Habits Of Highly Effective People, that the fog finally lifted. This book taught me why all those quick fixes don’t work and how my happiness depended on my own internal work and efforts. I encourage anyone who is struggle with a similar situation or everyone for that matter to read this book. It’ll change your perspective on life!
This book will change the way you look at life. This is, hands down, one of the best and most powerful books I’ve ever read in my life. I have recommended it to countless people. The fact that you’re seeking it out says volumes about your level of self-awareness as it is and this book builds on that. Very seldom do books really make me get involved when I read them, but this book made me break out my highlighter and notepad. There was so much good stuff I just had to take notes I could quickly reference. You know how some books make you say things out loud? You’ll read something and say, “YES! EXACTLY!” or read something profound and just sit dumbfounded, going “Wow,” and you have to take a moment to reflect on it? This book is full of moments like that.There is a lot of practical stuff in here, too. Challenges for you. Ways you can start to shift your thinking by taking an emotional inventory of your life and what you’re doing/feeling every day. Just writing about it makes me want to go back and read it…
