Today’s Motivation THINK WIN-WIN

THINK WIN-WIN

In his best-seller The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, Steven Covey
defines Win-Win as a frame of mind which constantly seeks mutual benefit
in all human interactions.

   · Win-Win means that agreements or solutions are mutually beneficial,
mutually satisfying.

   · With a Win-Win solution, all parties feel good about the decision and feel
committed to the action plan.

   · Win-Win sees life as a cooperative, not a competitive arena. Most people
tend to think in terms of dichotomies: strong or weak, hardball or softball,
win or lose. But that kind of thinking is fundamentally flawed, because it is
based on power and position rather than principle.

   · Win-Win is based on the paradigm that there is plenty for everybody, that
one person's success is not achieved at the expense or exclusion of the success
of others.

   · Win-Win is a belief in the third alternative. It’s not your way or my way;
it’s a better way, a higher way.
