(As we’ve discussed in another Big Idea,) Steven Covey’s 7th Habit (from “Seven Habits of Highly Effective People”) is called “Sharpening the Saw.”
We could also call that “Renewal.”
Covey offers four dimensions of our nature that we need to consistently renew:
“Physical: Exercise, Nutrition, Stress Management
Mental: Reading, Visualization, Planning, Writing
Social/Emotional: Service, Empathy, Synergy, Intrinsic Security
Spiritual: Value Clarification & Commitment, Study, Meditation”
How are you doing in each of those?
Are you spending enough time sharpening your saw in each?
What area needs more of your attention right now?
