Other Stephen Covey quotes:
Putting first things first means organizing and executing around your most important priorities. Whatever the circumstance, it is living and being driven by the principles you value most, not by the agendas and forces surrounding you.
What you do has far greater impact than anything you say.
Everyone has values; even criminal gangs have values. Values govern people's behavior but principles govern the consequences of those behaviors.
To change ourselves effectively, we first had to change our perceptions.
To know and not to do is not to know.
Chasing after the poisonous snake that bites us will only drive the poison through our entire system. It is far better to take measures immediately to get the poison out.
Organize and execute around priorities.
Results matter! They matter to your credibility.
He who wants to keep his garden tidy doesn't reserve a plot for weeds.
To set and work toward any goal is an act of courage.
