Habit 3

"Work first, then play"

"I spend my time on the things that are the most important"

"I stay focused on what I'm doing. I try to minimize distractions and regroup if I get off task"

Habit 3 is about putting those first things first. Future leaders who demonstrate Habit 3 show the following characteristics:

They spend time on the things that are the most important to them.

They say no to things that they should not do.

They set priorities, schedule them accordingly, and follow their plan to achieve goals.

They are organized.

Habit 3 wants you to remember to keep the main thing the main thing. Stay focused on the most important things in your life and prioritize your activities to do these first. In a hectic world remember you always have time for the things that you put first.

Leaders of the Pack

Every month, a student is nominated from each classroom as a "Leader of the Pack." These students demonstrate leadership by practicing the habit of the month throughout our school. Leaders of the Pack lead the way by setting an example for others and showing what it means to use the 7 Habits. Check out our Leaders of the Pack who were using Habit 3 - First Things First!
