Habit 6: Synergize.

 

Synergy is achieved when two or more people work together to create something better than either could alone. Through this habit, teens learn it doesn’t have to be “your way” or “my way” but rather a better way, a higher way, a higher way. Synergy allows teens to value differences and better appreciate others. Synergy is the reward, the delicious fruit you’ll taste as you get better at living the other habits, especially at thinking Win-Win and seeking first to understand. Learning to synergize is like learning to form V formations with others instead of trying to fly through life solo. You’ll be amazed at how much faster and further you’ll go. Synergy doesn't just happen. It’s a process. You have to get there. And the foundation of getting there is this: Learn to Celebrate Differences.

A good band is a great example of synergy. It’s not just the drums, or the guitar, or the sax, or the vocalist, its all of them together that make up the “sound.” Each band member brings his or her strengths to the table to create something better than each could alone. No instrument is more important than another, just different.

“ So often our quest to be more popular and to be part of the "in-group, “we lose sight of things that are far more important."

Sean covey

this quote means that we are sometimes more focused on trying to be cool or popular that we forget the things in our life that are way more important that popularity or being cool.in life there are things that we can lose grip of by trying to do other things like trying to be popular and your grades start to slip away. We need to focus on the more important thing that you have in your life.

5. Seek First to understand, and then to be Understood

Because most people don’t listen very well, one of the great frustration in life is that many don’t feel understood. This habit will ensure your teen learns the most important communication skill there is: active listening.

Why is this habit the key to communication? It’s because the deepest need of the human heart is to be understood. Everyone wants to be respected and valued for who they are – a unique, one-of-a-kind, never-to-be-cloned individual. People won’t expose their soft middles unless they feel genuine love and understanding. Once they feel it, however, they will tell you more than you may want to hear. People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care. Listen with your eyes, heart, and ears. 7 percent of communication is contained in the words we use. The rest comes from body language (53 percent) and how we say words, or the tone and feeling reflected in reflected in our voice (40 percent).

Most people are eager to talk and had rather talk than listen. We have mouth and two ear. This means we should listen twice as much as we talk. We actually learn more while listening rather than when we talk. Learn to listen and listen to learn. Listen, really listen, for understanding. Seek first to understand then to be understood—LISTEN

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 ideas that in any give discussion or situation both parties can arrive at a mutually beneficial solution. You 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 benefits of thinking win-win is the good feelings it brings on. The true test of whether or not you are thinking win-win or one 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 hear with happy and serene thoughts. It will give you confidence. Even fill you with light. Think win-win or no deal.
