7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens
Habit 4
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 idea that in any given discussion or situation both parties can
arrive at a mutually beneficial solution. Your 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 door mate 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 better 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 benefit 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-Loose and Loose-Win thinking will cloud your judgment and
fill you with negative feelings.
Win-win will fill your heart with happy and
serene thoughts. It will give you confidence. Even fill you with light. Think
Win-Win or no deal.
Choose The Right!
