[转载]高效能孩子的7个习惯

也许每个职场人士都知道《The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People - 高效能人士的7个习惯》这本书，但也许你不知道，这本书的作者还专门针对年幼孩子和中小学生，写过另外两本著名的书：《The 7 Habits of Happy Kids》和《The 7 Habits ofHighly Effective Teens》

很多美国学校根据这两本书的内容，给学生们画了一个叫 7个习惯树 / The 7 Habits Tree －的海报，作为孩子们品格教育的参照纲领。

说实话，在中国，大多数人这方面的教育开始得太晚了。当真正有所领悟的时候，往往人生已为时已晚。而从小养成这些好习惯的孩子，未来的路多数会走得比较顺畅和快乐。

所以，今天就介绍一下 The 7 Habits Tree，希望对大家有帮助。

这幅海报用一棵大树来比喻孩子一生中要培养的好习惯。从树根开始从下往上，这7个习惯像一棵树一样逐渐长成，分别是：

1. Be proactive

2. Begin with the end in mind

3. Put first things first

4. Think win-win

5. Seek first to understand, then to beunderstoo

6. Synergize

7. Sharpen the saw
