Thing #2

Putting first things first is the easiest and the hardest part of the 7 1/2 Habits of Effective People because the most important "things" constantly change. One must constantly reevaluate goals in reference family commitments, personal goals, professional goals, and spiritual commitment. My life is so committed that I often forget to play. There just doesn't seem to be any time for fun.
I believe that we too often look at highly effective people in terms of their success at work, but all the while we are teaching students that they must be "well-rounded." To be truly effective, one must have balance in all areas of her life, and for women that is difficult at best.
