Leader in Me Focus for the Month - Habit 3 Put First Things First
January At Home Activity
This month’s Habit: Habit 3: Put First Things First
Activity: See the variety of ideas below
Due Date: January 28th
Please click the button below to access the activity. We would love to have you share your Family Fun Reflections with us by January 28th, so we can proudly display our families practicing the 7-Habits at home!
Habit #3 Put First Things First- "Work First, Then Play"
What this means: Focus on what is important, schedule the important things first. Don’t be a dreamer - stay focused!
“I spend my time on things that are most important.”
“I say no to things I know I should not do.”
“I set priorities, make a schedule, and follow my plan.”
“I am disciplined and organized.”
How can I do this in my life?
1. Do your homework as soon as you come home from school.
2. Do something you have been putting off for a long time.
3. Think about your most important responsibilities. Do them first.
