Habits are a big part of your life, about 40 % of your actions are habits. What if you would become aware of your habits and make conscious decisions instead of doing things automatically without thinking if it is an effective behaviour or not. A habit can be something small like taking a coffee every morning when you wake up, but it can also be more complicated as not taking action to change something that you don’t feel comfortable with. These habits are not just there, they grow step by step until they become second nature. This can be very helpful because when something becomes a second nature, the action doesn’t take a lot of energy anymore. Though it is very annoying when the habit is not effective for your well being.
Do you want to have influence at what happens in your own life and in your surroundings? By living the 7 habits of highly effective people, a method developed by Steven Covey, you will become better in achieving the things that you appreciate most in life and you will become more effective in living the personal and career life that you want. This playlist is inspired by Steven Covey’s work. It will support you in creating habits that are useful.
To create useful habits or to change disruptive habits, it is important to understand who you are, what works best for you, and having a life vision. #1 is an activity that gives you a method to change a habit. In activity #2 you can learn about world views and worldview shifts, this will help you to be open for opinions and vision of other people. And #3 will give you more awareness of the importance of being proactive because this will support you in getting things done. #4 and #5 will guide you to decide your goal and what needs to be done first and not get lost in minor activities that are distracting you from your goal. In this learning playlist you will work mostly to be a leader in getting your own things done. But first things first, start with activities in this playlist.
Watch and be inspired by Youtube artist NickyTutorials when she decides to take back influence at her life during blackmail by sharing to the world that she is transgender. She became aware about her habits, was proactive within the area where she could influence to feel free again.

Everybody has world views (the way you look at things) due to, for example, the place where they were born, the people around, the education followed. World views are helpful, though they can also be in your way. This activity will support you in finding your own world view and recognising when you have a worldview shift. When understanding your own world view, you can also create empathy towards opinions, emotions, experiences, values or behaviour of others. And when understanding it makes it easier to have an appropriate response towards that other.
So put simply, your world views determine your values and behavior. Everybody knows that when the funding from a house is solid, that there will be a big chance that the house will stay there for a long time. The foundation of that house is massively important. The same for your life, when you know what is very important for you and you make this the foundation of your actions and decisions then this supports your happiness and effective living. It will support you in being self-aware and prevents you from being limited by others. What or who is at the center of your life? What empowers you to have influence on the actions and decisions that you take?
Review your center, what is there? And do you want to have this at the center? Does it support you in the way you want to live? You can use the example of the circle in the image and create your own personalised circle.
