7 Habits of
Highly Successful Teens Habit 1
(By Sean Covey
but modified)
Habit 1: Be Proactive.
Being Proactive is the key to unlocking the other
habits. Help your teen take control and responsibility for her life. Proactive
people understand that they are responsible for their own happiness or
unhappiness. They don’t blame others for their own actions or feelings.
Proactive people realize that the ball is in their court, that they are the
captain of their own ship; that they are in control, control of their
decisions, thoughts, choices, decisions, goals, actions, and priorities.
Proactive people are self-starters; they don’t wait to be told what to do, they
press forward with enthusiasm toward the achievement of their assignment, their
duties, their responsibilities, their obligations. Choosing to do what is right
is a proactive decision. Obey the rules. Obey the law. Obey the coach. Obey the
school policies. Obey your parents. Obey with exactness, and great things will
come to you. Be Proactive and take initiative.
