Throughout my life I have read this book 3 times now. Upon picking up the book again the 2nd and 3rd time I realized that I have gradually integrated a 1-2 of the habit's into my own life since my last reading. While I think that much of the content is common since, sometimes we don't always recognize the impact of practicing the habits or realize that we're not doing these things daily. Without going into great detail, I will just say that I think this is a fantastic book and encourage people to read and practice the 7 Habits.

This book is relevant to the subject we all want to succeed at which helps us to organise ourselves & our thoughts so that we can conduct our lives in an acceptable & respectable totally manageable manner in our lives. Dont let the bed bugs bite. Open your eyes get on with your life dont let anybody change your mind as this is your time and and your life. Hold your head high and do the job right dont let anyone put out your desires it now your time to shine. Move on let's get this job done I want it done faster than just about anyone. I can beat anyone sitting back on their bum. Hey I waste time on you as your a little lost bum. Spend time in the sun do you can get the job done. Your the one to help me with this one I consider the job is over with and completely done. Goodnight my dear one it's that time now when it's all been done. Goodnight everyone. I'm finished here my job has been done.

Assume Correct
This book is okay, but woefully incomplete, and doesn't necessarily age well for the modern diverse audience. The LGBT reader will be snapped out of the book due to out of date comments and assumptions on gender and sexuality. The book takes on a refreshing, almost youthrightsy tone, however, the author is woefully oblivious to his own independent discovery of youth as human. The advice is solid, but much better read from other sources, several Buddhist texts have similar advice, but are much better in their presentation. Although the book is aimed at capitalists, the books marriage with capitalism can sometimes make the points of the book ring hollow. It's an okay book, but it needs a facelift for the modern era.
