Weeks 10 and 11 begin Monday.  Because we are learning about Stephen Covey's habits, the assignments are spread out over 2 weeks/modules.  Weeks 10 and 11 are due together on Friday, March 17.  Be sure to manage your time over the next 2 weeks -- test out the skills you learned in Week 4 and reviewed in Week 7!  I recommend following the normal schedule and doing Week 10 by this Friday and Week 11 by the 17th.

Reminder:  For the Covey assignments, be sure to reference the text so that it is clear you did the reading.  Check out the attachment for tips on how to reference text.

Ready, learn, lead!

Be Proactive.png
The first Covey Habit is "Be Proactive."  What does proactive mean?  The prefix "pro" means "before" and the word "active" means "to do something."  If you are proactive, you make things happen instead of waiting for things to happen to you.  Covey suggests three ways to work on being being proactive.
  • Don’t suffer from the mistakes you made, be proactive and correct. Accept that you made a mistake and take action.
  • Make promises, set goals, even if they are really small ones. It builds the feeling of integrity and awareness and feeling of self-control.
  • Be a model, not a critic; be part of the solution.
