Yes, I have read the book and if I listed the seven habits, they would make little sense without  an explanation.

Habit 1 : Be Proactive : I know of no more encouraging fact than the unquestionable ability of a man to elevate his life by conscious endeavour.
Habit 2 : Begin with the end in mind - What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us (Olicer Wendell Holmes)
Habit 3 : Put first things first - Things which matter most must never be at the mercy of things which matter least. (Goethe)
Habit 4 : Paradigms of interdepenence - There can be no friendship with out confidence, and no confidence without integrith (Samuel Johnson)
Habit 5 : Think win/win - We have ccommitted the Golden rule to memory; let us now commit it to life (Edwin Markham)
Habit 6 : Seek first to understand, then to be understood - The heart has its reasons which reasons know not of (Pascal)
Habit 7 : Sharpen the saw - Sometimes when I consider what tremendous consequences come from little things, I am tempted to think. . . there are no little things (Bruce Barton)

There you go. I have listed all seven habits plus the little notes that go with them

Thanks for that, man. To be honest, I haven't finished reading the book. I am eating it slowly, like food that's too good to finish.
About the workers in Nigeria, I haven't started paying them yet. I'm trying to figure out how to cross the bridge before i even step out of the house. (i.e Habit 2) I'm still on the sketchpad, so I haven't had to pay anyone yet Cool

Thanks for remembering to ask and I hope you have a great week Smiley

Hehe, but the English are improving on their 'blandness' in food these days now that they are inter-marrying. I've been invited round to a few dinners and I've actually enjoyed the food!

Hey and to answer your questions, I'm not a manager yet. I'm just working on a couple of projects which will affect Nigerians positively and without hassle.

I don't know if I have the patience to build a house. I'D much rather buy a ready-made one!
