7 habits to help us be more productive

We have been revisiting the epic book by Steven Covey on the 7 habits of highly effective people. Now in its 4th edition after 30 years, there is no doubt that the habits still work. With the launch of Research Central in the last month - a virtual community to support PhD students, these habits have never been more relevant.

Habit 1: Be Proactive.
Habit 2: Begin with the End in Mind.
Habit 3: Put First Things First.
Habit 4: Think Win/Win.
Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood.
Habit 6: Synergize.
Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw.

This step-by-step pathway gives us principles to enable the security and mindset to adapt to change and the wisdom and power to take advantage of the opportunities that change creates.
