This week, I attended a workshop based on the book 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen Covey. The last habit is "Sharpen the Saw" which involved preserving and enhancing the greatest asset you have--you. It means having a balanced program for self-renewal in the four areas of your life: physical, social/emotional, mental, and spiritual. Here are some examples:
PHYSICAL: Beneficial eating, exercising, and resting
SOCIAL/EMOTIONAL: Making social and meaningful connections with others
MENTAL: Learning, reading, writing, and teaching
SPIRITUAL: Sending time in nature, expanding spiritual self through meditation, music, art, prayer, or service
Go ahead and sharpen your own saw!
my saw is getting pretty dull. will have to try some self improvement.
