Habit 2: Begin with an end in mind

This Habit could be restated, visualize where you want to go. Before you start
doing something sit down and plan it out. A couple of minutes planning will usually
save you many minutes of actual work later on. Use your creative forces to create
images and plans in your head first, then carry out your plan. The plan is called the
first creation, and when you carry out the plan it is the second creation. For your
"second creation" to be successful, you should have a well thought-out "first
creation" To begin with the end in mind is to begin with the image of the end of
your life as the frame of reference by which everything else is measured. We may
be busy, we may be efficient, but we will only be effective if we begin with the end
in mind. So, what do you want to be when you grow up? That question may appear
a little trite, but think about it for a moment. Are you--right now--who you want to
be, what you dreamed you'd be, doing what you always wanted to do? Be honest.
Sometimes people find themselves achieving victories that are empty--successes
that have come at the expense of things that were far more valuable to them. If
your ladder is not leaning against the right wall, every step you take gets you to
the wrong place faster. Habit 2 is based on imagination--the ability to envision in
your mind what you cannot at present see with your eyes. It is based on the
principle that all things are created twice. There is a mental (first) creation, and a
physical (second) creation. The physical creation follows the mental, just as a
building follows a blueprint. If you don't make a conscious effort to visualize who
you are and what you want in life, then you empower other people and
circumstances to shape you and your life by default. It's about connecting again
with your own uniqueness and then defining the personal, moral, and ethical
guidelines within which you can most happily express and fulfill yourself. One of
the best ways to incorporate Habit 2 into your life is to develop a Personal Mission
Statement. It focuses on what you want to be and do. It is your plan for success. It
reaffirms who you are, puts your goals in focus, and moves your ideas into the real
world. Your mission statement makes you the leader of your own life. You create
your own destiny and secure the future you envision.

Begin with the End in Mind means to begin each day, task, or project with a
clear vision of your desired direction and destination, and then continue by flexing
your proactive muscles to make things happen.

"People are working harder than ever, but because they lack clarity and vision,
they aren't getting very far. They, in essence, are pushing a rope with all of their
might."

DR. STEPHEN R. COVEY

Habit 2 is based on the principle that all things are created twice:

 a mental or first creation

 a physical or second creation

Leadership and Management

  Habit 2 is based on principles of personal leadership, which means that
leadership is the first creation. Management is the second creation.
 Management is doing things right, leadership is doing the right things.
 Often people get into managing with efficiency, setting and achieving goals
before they have even clarified values.

A Personal Mission Statement

 The most effective way to begin with the end in mind is to develop a
personal mission statement.
 The key to the ability to change is a changeless sense of who you are, what
you are about, and what you value.
 Once you have a sense of mission, you have the essence of your own
proactivity; the vision and values which direct your life, the basic direction
from which you set your goals.
At the Centre

Whatever is at the centre of our life will be the source of our security,
guidance, wisdom, and power.

Spouse centeredness Family centeredness

Money centeredness Work centeredness
Possession centeredness Pleasure centeredness
Friend/enemy centeredness Church centeredness
Self centeredness
 A Principle Centre
 Our lives need to be centred on correct principles -- deep, fundamental
truths, classic truths, generic common
denominators.
 As a principle centered person, you try to stand apart from the emotions of
situations and from other factors
to evaluate options.
