“Paradigms are like glasses. When you have incomplete paradigms about yourself or life in general, it’s like wearing glasses with the wrong prescription.”
- Sean Covey
Take a hard look at this picture.
What do you see? And more importantly, what helped you reach this conclusion?
Now look at this more complete version of the image from the previous page:
Is the picture what you thought it was? If not, you just experienced a paradigm shift – the way you saw something, your point of view, changed.
Some of our paradigms are about life in general. You can usually tell what your paradigms are by asking yourself “What is my life centered on?”
Before we move on, use this circle:
Look at the border. This border will serve as a divider. Outside of the circle place all the things you spend your time on: friends, school, music, movies, sports…
Use the notes feature or your pad to write these things down. We’ll come back to them shortly.
MyNotes
Principle (n): A natural law or basic truth (i.e., honesty, service, love).
Mental Quiz
Let’s play a game. This quiz will not only help you with understanding principles, but it will also exercise your mind.
Can you think of other important principles? Think of them and carry them in your mind. Consider what makes them important to you.
Now that you have this list and you’ve examined it, how do you learn from it? The first place is to understand that principles are difficult to abide by. Which one is the most difficult for you?
Is your mind feeling stronger as it tries to juggle all these different variables? Good!
Now, remember the circle from earlier? The one with the divider. What was it separating? Inside the center of the circle, let’s insert the word “principle.” Now going back to the notes feature or your notepad, write down a few principles that you find most difficult to live.
