7 Habits of
Highly Effective Teens
Habit 4:
Think Win-Win
Teens can
learn to foster the belief that it 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 feelings it brings on. The true test of whether or not you are thinking Win-Win or one of the alternatives is 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.
