Tribute

News came that Stephen Covey died yesterday.

His simple / profound teachings and philosophies about relationships of all kinds have been very helpful in my life, since the days when I was young and pretty much clueless about many things.

For example - (in shorthand) - : the key to the ninety-nine is the one ... private victories precede public victories ... take time to sharpen the saw ...  seek first to understand, then to be understood ... the "right brain / left brain differences" ...  the importance of reflective listening (well known now, but it was a new concept back then, )  ...   etc. etc.

In appreciation.
