Habit 2 – Begin With The End In Mind

“For many, the test or hard moment for Habit 2 comes when you are tired and lazy – just going with the flow.  Some new project or meeting or day begins and you simply do not do the mental, emotional, and spiritual work inside yourself to get a senses of how you would like it to end up.  This doesn’t mean you decide all the exact details of how you want the meeting or day to end up.  But rather, you do decide what you want the spirit of that day or meeting and the quality of the relationship to end up like.  You feel deeply committed to worthy end results and yet no action has been taken.” – Stephen R. Covey
