7 Habits of Highly
Successful Teens
Habit 4
4. Think Win-Win
Teens can learn to foster the belief that 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. 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 benefit of thinking win-win is the good feeling that 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 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!!
