Book Review: Stephen R Covey's "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People"

Today, I'd like to discuss a book that many of you out there may have already heard of, if not read:  "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People", by Stephen R. Covey (BTW, he's something of a big deal).

Most of my reading focuses on personal development.  I am a life-long learner and I stand humbled by the fact that, no matter how much I learn and strengthen my character, there's still so much more I can do to be a better person for others.  There's so much great content out there yet there is some junk as well.  No worries: this book is truly a must-read for everyone!

Here's why... 

Stephen Covey's works speak to the soul more than the mind and I like that.  He's about shaping the person so that the curse of knowledge can become a blessing.  This is something I've believed in long before I read any of his books.  As always, it's refreshing to know that we are not alone, even if we are severely outnumbered!
