Course Description
Dr. Stephen Covey teaches how to become great and successful in life.
✅ 1. Take Action (Be Proactive)
What it means: Don’t just wait—do something good! If something is hard, try to fix it instead of complaining.
If someone is sad, you don’t just watch—you go and help them feel better.
If you make a mistake, you say sorry and try again!
🎯 2. Know Your Goal
What it means: Think about what you want to do in life. Set a big goal, and take small steps to reach it.
If you want to be a kind person, start by helping your family or being nice to a classmate.
🔎 3. Focus on What Matters Most
What it means: Don’t get upset about little things. Think: “Is this really important?” Save your energy for things that really matter.
If someone says something mean, you don’t always have to fight. You can walk away or forgive them.
Dr. Covey says that when we do these three things—take action, have clear goals, and focus on important things—we become strong people.
Our Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) showed all of these good habits. He made smart choices, stayed calm, helped others, and always had a clear goal. He is the best example for us to follow!”
