A great book ages 11+

A great time to start is ages 11+, these Habits will provide tools to navigate life. Discuss with your kids, buy a book for each.

Thank you

Thank you for helping me realize some things that I could be improving on to better myself as a person. Because this book was specifically meant for teens it was very relatable and the author tried to make it very humorous so I enjoyed reading it but it actually kind of felt like I am having a conversation. You can learn a lot and some of his points are rather factual making you realize some things you should’ve been doing all this time. Highly recommend for light reading and for the benefit of becoming a better person

i love this book

i had this book when i was a teenager, when i moved in 2004 from the bay area to fresno it somehow got thrown away, i am now 32 years old and i still would read this book and still like this book only because i look like a teenager myself, i do not look 32 i look like i am between the ages of 17-18 years old and i am serious i am not kidding around.

7 hábitos de los adolescentes altamente efectivos.

It's a book very useful in your live. It's like a compass, but you have to be constant in order to keep in your mind the 7 habits every day and achieve a change as a person.

Better than Covey Senior's Book!

I found Stepehn R.Covey's classic very good and useful but I admit his son has done a better job at explaining the 7 Habits. Even if this book has been designed for teenagers I would define it more like 7 Habits for Dummies! Great book with a very entertaining layout!

This is the very best guidence book in the world

With this book I don't know where to begin, everytime I feel my life not going in the direction I should be going or when I feel my self getting off track I just pick up this book and it gets me straight again. I love to read different self help books and motavational books, and I would have to say this is the easiest to read. This book contains many cool pictures and side quotes that make it clearer to understand. It starts with the chapter get into the habit and the quote for the chapter really sums things up when it says "We first make our habits then our habits make us." The next chapter is paradigms and principles. This chapter talks about the philosophy, "what you see is what you get". Another great chapter is begin with the end in mind which says it best when said "you need to have the blueprints before you build the house." The best parts of the book I feel is when it talks about making deposits in your personal bank account and to always think win-win in any situation. I would recomend this book to anyone and everyone that actually cares about what path in there future to take.
