When Stephen Covey begins to describe his Habit # 7 of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, the impression is that the person has already put forth his primary efforts to become effective and now is the time to sharpen the saw. This means that the person needs to make sure that his or her efforts do not stop there. They keep getting improved with each passing day so that the person reaches the zenith of effectiveness. A person does not become successful or effective in a mere day; there is a lot of time and effort that goes into it. The Habit # 7 speaks of such efforts that are needed to be put in.
In order to ensure that the person is always honed to perfection, there are some things that need to be paid attention to. Actually, these are three main aspects of the body that need constant and consistent enhancement. These are the spiritual enhancement, the physical enhancement and the mental enhancement.
The spiritual enhancement is about bringing the person closer to his or her inner self. This can be done through meditation. A truly successful person will spend time in meditation just as much he or she spends time actively working. When the person meditates, the spirit is getting fed. Worshipping and praying also fall under this category. They all act to make the person more spiritually complete.
The second kind of enhancement that the person needs to do is physical enhancement. A person will cease to be effective the moment the body gives in. It is necessary to keep the body sharpened through exercise. This exercise will keep the person's health in good condition, and quite necessarily, a person with good health is a more effective person.
Mental enhancement refers to enriching the knowledge. This includes learning and keeping updated on developments. A person who has more knowledge and information about his or her subject is undoubtedly more successful and effective.
One more very important point that is mentioned in this habit by Stephen Covey is that once a person becomes effective, he or she must endeavor in building interpersonal relationships. Since we cannot live as islands, it is important to progress taking other people in tow. This point becomes of special significance when we speak of the network marketing niche.
These points are much needed to keep your effectiveness sharpened at all times. You may reach your peak in your business, but if any of these points fail, you may begin your descent.
