      <title>#220. Stephen Covey: Think Win/Win posted by brian @ Fri, 11 Jan 2008 22:43:13 -0000</title>
      <description>&lt;p align="center"&gt;&amp;ldquo;&lt;em&gt;We have committed the golden rule to memory; let us now commit it to life.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;~ Edwin Markham&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Win/Win. It&amp;rsquo;s Habit #4 of Stephen Covey&amp;rsquo;s &amp;ldquo;Seven Habits.&amp;rdquo; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We&amp;rsquo;ve all heard of it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The idea is simple (as all good ideas are): entering a relationship with someone? Think win/win. Think how you AND your prospective partner can BOTH win. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Very simple. But do you LIVE it?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Do you approach relationships (business or intimate) with a &lt;em&gt;true &lt;/em&gt;desire to see the other person &amp;ldquo;win.&amp;rdquo; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Or, are you more concerned about &amp;ldquo;winning&amp;rdquo;/being right/getting the better end of the deal. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(OR, are you in LOSE/Win situations where you&amp;rsquo;re showing up weakly and losing while the other wins?!)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Let&amp;rsquo;s think about how we can &lt;em&gt;truly &lt;/em&gt;create win/win energy in our lives.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;..&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What&amp;rsquo;s one relationship you need to spend more time thinking Win/Win about?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And, what are you going to do about it? Today?&lt;/p&gt;</description>
