A quick quote from the beginning:

=====
The book 7 Habits of Highly Effective People has sold over 15 million
copies since it was first published in 1989, teaching people all over
the world how to live a happier, more successful and more satisfying
life. One of the prevailing themes of the book is the fact that to
change your life you need to change your attitude because no one else
is responsible for what happens to you but you, so you can either
complain about the things you don’t like in your life or you can set
about changing them.

I am a big fan of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. Read the
book and did the course in about 1993. I found it very beneficial. I
have even pulled the book out for a periodic re-read.

But a warning, fleabaggers might not like it because it means organizing
their thoughts and life plans. And they fear being successful when it
is easier to whine a lot and ask government to steal and ponzi fraud
debt for them.

I can assure you that the road to prosperity is not paved with
fleabagger debt.
