The Ten Tips 
1. Make a commitment to tell the truth.
2. Tell someone about your commitment.
3. Think before you give a dishonest answer, explanation, sarcasm, or reason.

What this is saying is that you have to think before you say something bad or rude to someone. You have to think because what if they tell you something in a nice way or ask you something in a nice way and you just respond in a bad way to them. You could hurt someones feelings like that.

4. Be careful of when and how you use exaggeration, sarcasm, or irony.
5. Be careful not to twist the truth or leave out part of it.

6. Don't indulge in little white lies.

7. Watch out for silent lies.

8. When you catch yourself lying, throw your mouth into reverse.

9. Talk to yourself.

10. Treat yourself when you tell the truth.

Reflection: These tips can benefit me when I use them because there teaching me ways to be more polite and to be honest. Being polite and honest is a very good thing to be because people like honest people instead of being a liar and people also like polite people instead of people being all rude. These tips have helped me a lot with friends and also in class.

Ten Keys To Personal Power
Brian Tracy









Key 1: Clarity 
"Have vision. Determine what you want to be, do or have in life. Have a sense of direction and know where you're going. If you do not have clear specific goals in life, you are doomed forever to work for others who do."

In order to get somewhere in life you have to know what you want to be or what you want to do. Its better to set goals now than last minute, because if you set them last minute maybe you won't have enough time to accomplish the goals you set last minute. Goals should be set with time not all last minute. But if you don't have any goals for what you want to do or be in life then your going to end up doing stuff or working for other people who have set goals for what they want to do or be.

Key 2: Competence 
"If you commit to excellence, opportunities will always come your way. The harder you work, the better you get."

Committing to excellence is like committing for great things to happen in your life. Its good to commit to excellence because its like committing to only good things to happen instead of bad things. Its like committing to a sport, and you work hard for it, you will get better at the sport.    

Key 3: Concentration 
"Make the best use of your time. ask yourself "is this the best use of my time?" before you start anything."          

Make sure before you do something, you ask yourself like is this really worth my time. Like things that aren't important to you are obviously not worth your time. Like relationships, are they really worth your time? Is one person really worth all your time, like after you guys break up thtas one whole waste of time.

Key 4: 

Key 5: Creativity 
"Except the fact that every human begin is a genius. The hallmark of creativity is asking questions. The people who are most creative ask the most questions."

Key 6: Consideration
"The quality of your relationships with other people will determine your success in life."
"Develop the people skills you need to become a better communicator. Take courses in listening, speaking, etc."
"If you were to learn one new word a day, within 5 years, you'll be the best educated person in history."

Key 7: Consistency 
"Dependable, steady predictable work is always superior to fast spurts of work."
"Be consistent in your relationships, your family, friends, your boss, your work. Be the person that people can depend upon. That if you say you'll do something you do it."

Key 8: Commitment 
"No success is possible without commitment. The ability to commit yourself whole heartily is the basis of achieving all success."
"Become totally absorbed in your work. Be totally committed."

Key 9: 
"The fear of failure is the single greatest reason for failure in life."

Key 10: Confidence 
"You only get confidence by doing things over and over again."

The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People 
Habit 1: Be Proactive
Habit 2: Begin with the end in mind
Habit 3: Put First Things First 
Habit 4: Think Win-Win
Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, then to be Understood 
Habit 6: Synergize
Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw


Habit 1: Be Proactive 
"Habit 1 is the key to unlocking all the other habits and that's why it comes first. I t says, "I am the captain of my life. I can choose my attitude. I'm responsible for my own happiness or unhappiness. I am in the driver's seat of my destiny, not just a passenger."

I think what "being proactive" is to always have responsibility for your own actions and be organized. In order to be successful in life you have to learn to be responsible and learn to lead your life and not anyone else lead it for you.

Habit 2: Begin with the end in mind 
"Control your own destiny or someone else will." (Jack Welch)

I think what "begin with the end in mind" is like to lead you're own future and let no one else lead it but yourself. Don't ever let someone tell you that you can't do something for yourself when you grow up. Like if you want to be a famous football player or basketball, do it, go for it, don't ever let someone you can't succeed in life. Be the leader of your own future never let someone else be a leader of it.

Habit 3: Put First Things First
"Organize and execute around priorities."

I think what "put first things first" is like to put aside all the things in order to stay on track with your education or career, Focus on the important thing. Things that are going to lead you to well places, not things that won't lead you to your career or good achievements.

Habit 4: Think Win-Win
"Think Win-Win or no deal."

I think what "think win-win" is like to always think positive and believe you can. To never think negative, when you do to not thin at all because whats the point to think when its all negative. Just always think positive go towards the win.

Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, then to be Understood
"Diagnose before you prescribe."

Habit 6: Synergize
"The whole is greater than the sum of its parts (1+1=3)"

Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw 
Four Dimensions of Self-Renewal: Physical, Mental, Spiritual, Social/Emotional

Three Fundamental Techniques in Handling People 

Technique 1: Don't criticize, condemn or complain 
"If you want to gather honey, don't kick over the beehive."
Reflection: I agree with this quote because its saying that to handle people you have to able to not be rude and be mean and criticize them. Also about sharing your problems like people already have enough problems of there own they don't need yours or they don't need you to get them involved. Never share with hem something you don't like but they do like it. Like oh I like to play basketball and then the other person says I don't like it. Like no don't say that. Or when you have different music taste than other people, never criticize the music they hear because not everyone listens o the same thing you do.



Technique 2: Give honest and sincere appreciation 
"The big secret in dealing with people"
Reflection: I agree that giving honest will help you handle people because your not lying your saying the truth to them. Also showing appreciation will help you deal with people because your showing that you appreciate them being your friend. To be honest you just have to say the truth and not lie. Maybe there's a few things you have to be dishonest about like if you don't like someones shoes, clothes, hair, etc. just keep your bad comments to yourself because then saying that would make the person feel bad.


Technique 3: Arouse in the other person an eager want.
"He who can do this has the whole world with him. He who cannot, walks a lonely way." 
Reflection: I agree with this quote, in order to maintain successful working relationships with people we have to able to understand them. In order to win over other people , why talk about what you want? The individual who is able to put the needs of others above his or her own will be able to win the hearts of others.




Final Reflection: I think these three techniques will help with handling people because they give really good advice and I will apply these techniques by always being honest like a good honest never a negative. Always learning not to criticize people and there beliefs or opinions or hobbies or whatever they like. Always being able to accept people who they are and not trying to change them.
