Habit 6: Synergize.

Synergy is achieved when two or more people work together to create something better than either could alone. Through this habit, teens learn it doesn’t have to be “your way” or “my way” but rather a better way, a higher way. Synergy allows teens to value differences and better appreciate others. Synergy is the reward, the delicious fruit you’ll taste as you get better at living the other habits, especially at thinking Win-Win and seeking first to understand. Learning to synergize is like learning to form V formations with others instead of trying to fly through life solo. You’ll be amazed at how much faster and further you’ll go. Synergy doesn't just happen. It’s a process. You have to get there. And the foundation of getting there is this: Learn to Celebrate Differences.

A good band is a great example of synergy. It’s not just the drums, or the guitar, or the sax, or the vocalist, its all of them together that make up the “sound.” Each band member brings his or her strengths to the table to create something better than each could alone. No instrument is more important than another, just different.

Student Success Statement ~

Student Success Statement

 

"The only difference between those who have failed and those who have succeeded lies in the difference of thier habits. Good habits are the key to all success. Bad habits are the unlocked door to failure. Thus, the first law I obey, which precedeth all others is - 'I will form good habits and become their slaves.'"

 

-Og Mandino

 

The meaning of this quote is that there is only one and pretty much MAGOR difference between the people who chose the wrong and obviously failed or chose the right and succeeded. When you're making the right decisions, thats like the 'key' to Success! Sadly, when making wrong choices... it's no 'key' to anything. And so, the habit of choosing the right will not only benifit you, but the people around you - they will think good of you, loved ones will feel proud of you, and you will feel great about yourself. Choose The Right!
