7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens
Habit 4
Habit 4. Think Win-Win
Teens can learn to foster the belief that it is
possible to create an atmosphere of Win-Win in every relationship. This habit
encourages the idea that in any given discussion or situation both parties can
arrive at a mutual beneficial solution. Your teen will learn to celebrate the
accomplishments of others instead of being threatened by them. Win-Win is a belief that everyone can win. It’s
both nice and tough all at once. I won’t step on you, but I won’t be your
doormat either. You care about other people and you want them to succeed. But
you also care about yourself, and you want to succeed as well. Win-Win is
abundant. It is the belief that there’s plenty of success to go around. It’s
not either you or me. It’s both of us. It’s not a matter of who gets the
biggest piece of the pie. There’s more than enough food for everyone. It’s an
all you can eat buffet.
Win-win always creates more. Perhaps the most surprising
benefit of thinking Win-Win is the good feeling it bring on. The true test of
whether or not you are thinking Win-Win or one of the alternatives is how you
feel. Win-Lose and Lose-Win thinking will cloud your judgment and fill you with
negative feelings.
Win- Win will fill your heart with
happy and serene thoughts. It will give you confidence. Even fill you with
light. Think Win-Win or no deal.
CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!
