  1. 7 Habits – A Quick Review

  2. Paradigms and Principles • Paradigms – the way you see something, your point of view, frame of reference, or belief • Principles – it is simple that your heart can recognize true principles, just like a compass always points to true north

  3. Paradigms • Paradigms of Self • Paradigms of Others • Paradigms of the World • Paradigms of Life

  4. Paradigms • Paradigms are like glasses. If you wear glasses of wrong prescription, what will happen? • What if you have incomplete paradigms about yourself, others or life in general, what will happen?

  5. Paradigms of Self • Negative self-paradigms can put limitations on us; positive self-paradigms can bring out the best in us.

  6. Fleas in a jar • A person places some fleas in a jar with a lid on it. The fleas will of course begin to jump, repeatedly hitting the lid in their attempt to escape.

  7. Fleas in a jar • After about 20 minutes, the fleas begin to learn that they cannot escape and stop jumping as high as they did to begin with, to avoid smacking their head on the lid.

  8. Fleas in a jar • Once they become accustomed to the fact that they cannot escape, you can remove the lid and the fleas will continue to jump at the same height, never escaping the jar. Since the fleas BELIEVE they cannot escape the confines of the jar, they stop trying.

  9. Fleas in a jar • Because of their experience with smacking their heads repeatedly, every time they tried to escape, they never even bother looking up to see that the lid is no longer there
