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 doormat either. You care about other people
and you want them to succeed and abundant. It is the belief that 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 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 heart with happy and serene thoughts. It
will give you confidence. Even fill you with lights. Think Win-Win or no deal.
