Leader in Me
We are continuing to practice Habit 2 – Begin with the End in Mind. It is the habit of vision, or the habit of having a plan.
There are several fun things you can do to encourage goal setting at home. For example, you may want to emphasize why writing down your goals is so important. As the saying goes, “A goal not written in only a wish.” Or you can discuss how planning ahead – whether it be with money, in school, or in life – always leads to good things, including being better positioned to help others.
I encourage you to partner with us in teaching your student to practice Habit 2 at home. To learn more about The Seven Habits and how they can be used at home, visit "Parent's Place" at http://www.theleaderinme.org/parents/

Week 10: (10/24-10/28)- Habit 3- Put First Things First
