More Quotes by Stephen Covey
I am not a product of my circumstances. I am a product of my decisions.
Link yourself to your potential, not to your past.
The key is not to prioritize what's on your schedule, but to schedule your priorities.
Live your life by a compass, not a clock.

Their behavior is a product of their own conscious choice, based on values, rather than a product of their conditions, based on feeling.
There are three constants in life... change, choice and principles.
Most of us spend too much time on what is urgent and not enough time on what is important.
Little kindness and courtesies are so important. In relationships, the little things are the big things.
Prepare your mind and heart before you prepare your speech . What we say may be less important than how we say it.
