A Book a Week – The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People

I must admit that I avoided reading The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People for a good many years. And I would have kept on avoiding it if it weren’t for my walking every day in October.

My walking was unplanned and so I needed an audiobook asap to keep me occupied. The only one I had on hand was this one. So I listened to it every day while I walked.

All in all, I knew most of the points he made but there were some great reminders about putting the important over the urgent and listening openly. And being active as opposed to reactive. Planning ahead. Most of which I do regularly. But things you can never be reminded enough.

So while I don’t regret the time I spent on it, I am glad it was whilst walking.
