Seek first to understand..

My favorite habit that Sean Covey talks about in this book is to seek first to understand instead to be understood, which is in my opinion the best advice you can give a teenager. Teenagers are so eager to get their words across and to be understood by their peers that they sometimes completly discredit others feeling inorder to do so. this is a very bad character trait/ habit to inherit. I know this was something i have had alot of struggle with, i strive to be understood. This book has helped me incredibly with this and i am very greatful! Thank you Sean Covey:)
