7 habits of
highly successful teens
Habit 1
(by Sean Covey
but modified)
Habit 1: be proactive.
Being proactive is the key to unlocking the other habits. Help
your teen take control and responsibility for their life. Proactive people need
to understand that they are responsible for their own happiness or unhappiness.
They don’t blame others for their own actions or feelings. Proactive people
realize that the ball is in their court that they are the captain of their own
ship; they are in control, control of their decision, thoughts, choices, decisions,
goals, action, and priorities. Proactive people are self-starters; they don’t wait
to be told what to do, they press forward with enthusiasm toward the
achievement of their assignment, their duties, their responsibilities, their
obligations. Choosing to do what is right is a proactive decision. Obey the
rules. Obey the law. Obey the coach. Obey the school policies. Obey your
parents. Obey with exactness, and great things will come to you. Be proactive
and take the initiative.
Choose the right.
