"So far, so good. It's taking me a while to get through this book but whenever I am able to pick it up I always learn helpful ideas and advice of how to raise a successful family."
"I really enjoyed this book and wrote all over the margins with personal ideas and comments. One of those books that I like to thumb through every once in a while to get new ideas or be reminded of ways to make family life better. Definitely recommend it!"
"I listened to an abridged audio book instead of reading this, but the abridged version left me wanting to read the unabridged version. This book was amazing! Stephen Covey's advice is both wise and easily applied to daily life. I would recommend this book to anyone as a wonderful way to improve even an already good family environment."
"Written using the same principles that were introduced in the bestselling "The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People," Stephen Covey applies The Seven Habits to the family using personal, family, and others' experiences to illustrate each concept. Every chapter includes ways to apply the principles in the family, and ways to teach the principles to your family. I've only read a chapter or two of the first Seven Habits book, and so I enjoyed not only learning about the Seven Habits, but how they apply to the family. Like any program, the Seven Habits takes time and application, and then patience to see results, but the Seven Habits are grounded in truths that will help anyone or any family have better relationships and be more successful in life. I loved the illustrating stories and the personal insights that Dr. Covey, his wife, his family, and others shared to help the reader learn how to apply the principles. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants ideas on how to improve family relationships and create a beautiful family culture. When we lived in student housing at BYU, our stake president (the leader of several LDS congregations) was John Covey, Dr. Covey's brother. We had the privilege of having a half-day seminar given by John and Stephen Covey based on these principles, with break-out sessions given by his wife and daughters and one of the counselors who also worked for Covey. There was no promotion of the company whatsoever; just an excellent discussion of how to build our little budding families in positive, inspired ways. I've always appreciated the time they took out of their busy lives to teach us the doctrines of Jesus Christ and the practical application of them using the experiences they've had in applying the Seven Habits and other truths."
