7 Habits of Highly Successful Teens
Habit 3
Habit 3:Put First things First
Habit three is about Will and Will Not power. This habit helps teens prioritize and manage their time so that they focus on and complete the most important things in their lives. Putting first things first also means learning to overcome fears and being strong during difficult times. It’s living life according to what matters most. Putting first things first is dealing with things that are:
Important or not important, urgent or not urgent. Let’s look at the four quadrants of time management.
Quadrant 1: things that are important or urgent
Quadrant 2: things that are important but not urgent
Quadrant 3: things that are not important but are urgent
Quadrant 4: things that are not important and not urgent.

1.Important & urgent
2.Important but not urgent
3.Not important but are urgent
4.NOT important and NOT urgent
Quadrant 2: is the ideal place to spend your time, doing things that are important but not urgent. Here’s where priorities come into play. The results for living quadrant 2 are:

1.   Control your life

2.   Balance

3.   High performance

So in what quadrant are you spending most of your time? The key is to shift as much time as possible into quadrant 2 and this is accomplished by planning. Spend more time planning and incorporating the most important things first, things that matter most. Keep your eye on the prize and reach for it.
Choose the Right!!
