The seven habits of highly effective people

Application Suggestions 
 
   1.  Think about a person who typically sees things differently than you do.  Consider ways in 
which those differences might be used as stepping-stones to Third Alternative solutions.    Perhaps you 
could seek out his or her views on a current project or problem, valuing the different views you are 
likely to hear. 
   2.  Make a list of people who irritate you.  Do they represent different views that could lead to 
synergy if you had greater intrinsic security and valued the differences. 
   3.  Identify a situation in which you desire greater teamwork and synergy.  What conditions 
would need to exist to support synergy? What can you do to create those conditions. 
      4.    The next time you have a disagreement or confrontation with someone, attempt to understand 
the concerns underlying that person's position.  Address those concerns in a creative and mutually 
beneficial way.
