First Things First

Author: Stephen Covey, Roger Merrill, Rebecca Merrill

Category: Professional

Reviewer: Frasier

Department/Position: Business/Marketing

Summary: First Things First is about the life of a busy business person or any busy person for that matter. Those of us that are always busy and always have too much on our plates will do well from not only reading this book but putting the practices it suggests into practice. The authors have found a way for everyone to be able to reorganize their lives and set priorities. As you read through the book you will find a need to set it down and think about how you deal with people and problems. This book takes some time to get through. Instead of running our lives by the clock the author helps create individual compasses and direction for each reader. This is a great follow up to the reading The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People which is a great book!

Recommended Audience: This is a thick book…better suited for an older person, college or beyond. It will test your ideas and ideals. I recommend it to the older sort because you have to be wiling to agree that you don't have all the answers. The rating is due to the length, it definitely took awhile to get through.

Rating: 4

This book is available in the AHS library.
