Covey-The-7-habits-of-highly-effective-people

Act or be Acted Upon
The difference between people who exercise initiative and those who don't is literally the 
difference between night and day. I'm not talking about a 25 to 50 percent difference in 
effectiveness; I'm talking about a 5000-plus percent difference, particularly if they are 
smart, aware, and sensitive to others.
It takes initiative to create the P/PC Balance of effectiveness in your life. It takes initiative 
to develop the Seven Habits. As you study the other six habits, you will see that each 
depends on the development of your proactive muscles. Each puts the responsibility on

you to act. If you wait to be acted upon, you will be acted upon. And growth and 
opportunity consequences attend either road.
At one time I worked with a group of people in the home improvement industry, 
representatives from 20 different organizations who met quarterly to share their numbers 
and problems in an uninhibited way.
This was during a time of heavy recession, and the negative impact on this particular 
industry was even heavier than on the economy in general. These people were fairly 
discouraged as we began.
The first day, our discussion question was "What's happening to us? What's the 
stimulus?" Many things were happening. The environmental pressures were powerful. 
There was widespread unemployment, and many of these people were laying off friends 
just to maintain the viability of their enterprises. By the end of the day, everyone was 
even more discouraged.
The second day, we addressed the question, "What's going to happen in the future?" We 
studied environmental trends with the underlying reactive assumption that those things 
would create their future. By the end of the second day, we were even more depressed. 
Things were going to get worse before they got better, and everyone knew it.
So on the third day, we decided to focus on the proactive question, "What is our 
response? What are we going to do? How can we exercise initiative in this situation?" In 
the morning we talked about managing and reducing costs. In the afternoon we 
discussed increasing market share. We brainstormed both areas, then concentrated on 
several very practical, very doable things. A new spirit of excitement, hope, and proactive 
awareness concluded the meetings.
At the every end of the third day, we summarized the results of the conference in a three-
