The Covey Lesson

Covey says…

“Your language is a good indicator of how you see yourself. A proactive person uses proactive language--I can, I will, I prefer,

etc. A reactive person uses reactive language--I can't, I have to, if only. Reactive people believe they are not responsible for

what they say and do--they have no choice.”
