Habit 7: Sharpen The Saw
Habit 7 is focused around renewal, or taking time to “sharpen the saw.” It surrounds all of the other habits and makes each one possible by preserving and enhancing their greatest asset – themselves. They devote time to renewing themselves physically, spiritually, mentally, and socially. Continuous renewal allows us to synergistically increase our ability to practice each habit and to continuously improve. As they improve, they also improve others. They see the potential in others and seek to help others improve their lives.
“The more we see people in terms of their unseen potential, the more we can use our imagination rather than our memory.”
