  1. I have just started reading. Hope to see changes in my habits.

  2. CENDDIE G ALABAN says:

    What? Where’s the 7 habits of highly effective people?
    Habit 1 Be proactive
    Habit 2 Begin with the end in mind
    Habit 3 Put first things first
    Habit 4 think win win
    Habit 5 seek to understand before being understood
    Habit 6 Synergize
    Habit 7 Sharpen the saw

    I highly recommend this Tom.

    • I’ve tried reading that book at least 3 times over the years and never liked it. I did not like the way it was written. It seemed to me it was written for corporate America. I even bought the audio book two years ago and tried listening to it. I couldn’t get through the audio book either. I want to like that book, but I just don’t.

  3. Lisa Schreiber says:

    Great list! You mention a bunch of books I haven’t even heard of! Thanks!

  4. Davene Meehan says:

    I am still digesting your Change Your Habits, Change Your Life–probably on the 10th or so go around. I love it. But looks like I need to take it, incorporate it and go on. Have you thought of making a workbook with the Rich Habits Test, (which I gave my students with a little editing), habit rating, future letter, obituary, dream-setting, goal-making, bucket list???

  5. How about the book Getting Things Done by David Allen

  6. I would add Getting Things Done by David Allen
