He calls them the seven habits, put them into a format that we could talk about them, understand them, and most importantly, start to implement them into our lives. And so the reason that I have found that these have been as relevant, more relevant today than they were when Dr. Covey first wrote about them was because they're based on principles, principles of effectiveness.

And principles, as we know, were as true a million years ago as they will be a million years from now. They don't change. Now, the application changes, the way we put them to work changes in this ever-changing world. But the principles themselves don't ever change. And so this book is timeless.

And I have found in my space, in the people space, if I remember these principles and I treat others in a principle-centered way, we can solve things. We can move forward. We can get past issues and help everyone move forward and progress. That's been my experience.

Yeah, great question. So it's been out 35 years. The book has, the book is, there might be a forward that's updated. There might be, but the principles haven't changed. The habits themselves haven't changed. We don't really rewrite the book, but about every eight to 10 years, we have a work session that goes along with the book. We have many work sessions.

We have 29, 30 different work sessions in different areas of business. But the seven habits is our foundational piece. And the work session that is about two full days worth of content. And that can be taught consecutively. That can be taught spread out. There's an on-demand. You can self-paced. That changes.

We update that about every eight to 10 years because the application and how we put these practices or these principles to work change. And so that's what we have just launched. And what has changed in this most recent version? We just continually make them more practical, more applicable, more inclusive.

When I say simplify, anyone who's read The Seven Habits, it is a firehose of powerful information. And sometimes people just don't know where to start. They understand it all, but they don't know how to apply it.

And so this latest version, we've made it very, I don't want to say simplified, but very practical so that I can go through the course and I can start applying these principles tomorrow or tonight in my personal relationships and certainly in my professional relationships. Could you give us one example? You bet.

I'm happy to walk through all the habits, but let me just tell you, habit one is very foundational. It's habit one for a reason. It's called be proactive. And it's based on the principle of choice. The principle being that while there is so much you and I cannot influence or change, we can choose our response to any situation.

In fact, when I have looked at your LinkedIn profile, Vince, and your background and history, And you've had some amazing experiences and some very challenging experiences. And I've thought about the choices that you have made, the way you have chosen to respond to those situations. You know, we can't always create or fix the situation, but we can choose our response.
