7 Habits of Highly
Effective Teens Habit 4
4.
Think Win-Win
Teens can learn to foster the belief that it is possible
to create an atmosphere of Win-Win in every relationship. This habit encourages
the idea that in any given discussion or situation both parties can arrive a
mutually beneficial solution. Your teen will learn to celebrate the
accomplishments of others instead of being threatened by them. Win-Win is a
belief that everyone can win. It’s both nice and tough all at once. I won’t
step on you, but I won’t be your doormat either. You care about other people
and you want them to succeed. But you also care about yourself, and you want to
succeed as well. Win-Win is abundant. It is the belief that there’s plenty of
success to go around. It’s not either you or me. It’s both of us. It’s not a
matter of who gets the biggest piece of the pie. There’s more than enough food
for everyone. It’s an all-you-can-eat buffet.
Win-Win always creates more. Perhaps the most surprising
benefit of thinking Win-Win is the good feelings it brings on. The true test of
the alternatives is how you feel. Win-Lose and Lose-Win thinking will cloud
your judgment and fill you with negative feelings.
Win-Win will fill your heart with happy and serene
thoughts. It will give you confidence. Even fill you with light. Think Win-Win
or no deal.
CHOOSE
THE RIGHT!!!
