Tuesday, June 27, 2023: Twice a week we bring you informational, educational, inspirational, and entertaining messages. This edition showcases the following topic:

• Tuesday Information and Education – One of the most readable and most useful contributions to the field of personal development and personal mastery is still the mammoth best-seller, The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, by Stephen Covey, published in 1989. Covey zeroes in on the role of habits in the quest for human effectiveness, since habits allow us to act without thinking. For example, most of us can tie our shoes with no trouble, since we have done it so many times. But actually learning to tie our shoes as little children with no shoe-tying experience can be frustrating and time-consuming. Thus it can be very difficult to form the productive habits we need to form. The paradox here, of course, is that we are all susceptible to bad habits as well as good habits, and our attempts to form good new habits must often start with attempts to break old bad habits. Once we have formed good habits for effective behavior and practiced them over and over, however, they become second nature so we can act on them spontaneously without thinking.

A Better Angels Quote to Live by: "At age 20, we worry about

what others think of us. At age 40, we don't care what

they think of us. At age 60, we discover they haven't been

thinking of us at all." – Ann Landers

We can't do anything by ourselves. Neither can you.

Please help us HELP OTHERS HELP OTHERS. (HOHO)
