Average Rating: 
Rating: - A "must read" for anybody who wants happiness and success
Covey is easy to understand, and his teachings are solid. He skillfully leads you through some mental exercises that open up new vistas of insight. The concepts themselves have stood the test of time; it's Covey's presentation and way of tying everything together that work the apparent magic. I read this book nearly 10 years before writing this review, and have referred to it often since then. Covey's contribution to mankind, through this book, is major. "Seven Habits..." may well be one of the great life-changing tools of our time. Why should you read this book? As Covey says, "Put first things first." This book lays a firm foundation from which you can reach new heights--both professionally and personally. If you have any desire to take control of your life, to be happy, to succeed--this book (or tape) is for you. If you enjoy chaos, uncertainty, and failure, don't read this book.
Rating: - This book has improved my life!
I, like almost every human being in the world, have a hard time prioritizing and improving my weakest points. I have also been given advice on how to juggle school, work and a personal life without feeling as though I'm about to explode. But as that old cliche goes, it's easier said than done. Having read The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, however, my personal problems have somehow subsided. This is definitely a book that could change your life. That is if you follow what it says. It teaches you how to be proactive and how to take time to do the things that one might take for granted, like your physical and mental health and social and spiritual life. Also, it helps you figure out if you have a win/win mentality. This is a great and extremely helpful book. It is -- without a doubt -- the best self-help book I have purchased in years. I applaud Stephen R. Covey for having written such an honest and informative book. I strongly urge to read it. And I also strongly urge you to reflect on it and follow the instructions on how to be a better and more proactive person.
Rating: - Very Effective Book!
The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People' does a good job of tying together the seemingly diverse areas of human relationships, awareness, spirituality and business issues. While the focus is mostly business and work-related, Covey touches on how to be more effective in every area of life from marriage to contract negotiations. He brings a fresh perspective to improving our relationships with ourselves and everyone else in our lives. One thing I especially liked was how he carefully explains that there are not necessarily specific steps or methods to building the Habits, but rather conveys the necessity of a change in underlying attitudes that is required for significant progress in our lives. In this respect, the book reminds me of "WORKING ON YOURSELF DOESN'T WORK" by Ariel and Shya Kane (another excellent book on being more effective, as well as becoming more satisfied in all areas of one's life). Both books do not try to fill you with new 'techniques', they instead describe new ways of looking at ourselves - which ultimately produces the lasting results we are seeking. The contrast between popular 'self-help' jargon and the lessons described in this book are clear and enlightening. The book feels like it was written by a spiritual disciple with an MBA, and rather than forsaking one approach for the other, there is a synergistic (Synergizing is habit 6) blend of perspectives. I recommend this book highly to those who haven't had much exposure to teachings on awareness, as many of the examples are relevant to the real world and quite practical. For those who have read a lot on self-improvement, 7 HABITS can add a new, more business-like dimension, and reading "WORKING ON YOURSELF DOESN'T WORK" will allow you to achieve a greater understanding of what fulfillment really feels like.
