7 Habits of Highly Effective People

Hey all! I'm so excited about today. Guess what? The company where i belong for this practical work period, BP Indonesia, held a training about "7 Habits of Highly Effective People". At first i thought it would be a boring, static, constant - or whatever word you want to use - things to spend my work time with (especially when you imagine how would it be like trapped in a huge group of 30-40th years old generation :p)

But.......I was totally WRONG! Those people are really FUNNY, PEPPY, and INCREDIBLY ENTHUSIASTIC. Here are some of them :


The face - look at them - looks so sumringah hehehe
Mr. Satyo - our facilitator - called us the LEARNER, means that we're not a student who constrained by time & space barrier and only receiving (everything) without arguing (anything). We came to the training because ourselves asks us to. We got the motivation from the inside of our heart. A motivation to be a Highly Effective People.

So, who are they?
They're individuals who successfully implement the 7 suggested habit in their daily life. Though we know that nobody is perfect, it is best to try and never give up of it. The complete explanation about the habit can be read here. But i want to show you a briefly description about this 7 magic recipe. Must be curious, huh? :p


It called the Maturity Continuum. We can see all of the 7 habits :
1. Be Proactive
2. Begin with the End in Mind - what are our values?
3. Put First Things First - distinguish between Important & Urgent
4. Think Win/Win - this is the part where we did a game called "Win as much as you can"
5. Seek First to Understand, then to be understood - beware of the way you communicate
6. Synergize
7. Sharpening the Saw

The top 3 are the way we realize a Private Victory - it is just for ourselves. But when we come to the next 3, we come to the gate of Public Victory - not only ourselves but also the people around. It also related with how we can improve our tendency from Dependence to Independent, and finally the Interdependence, the phase where every one of us is essential for each other.

Looking forward if there are any similar events ;)

Stay effective fellas! :D
