COMMUNICATE SYNERGISTICALLY.
When you communicate synergistically, you’re opening your mind, heart, and expressions to new possibilities, new alternatives, and new options. You’re not sure how things will turn out, but you have an inward sense of excitement, security, and adventure.
Stephen R. Covey
DEVELOP INTRAPERSONAL SYNERGY.
Intrapersonal synergy provides the internal security sufficient to handle the risks of being open and vulnerable. Internalizing these principles helps us develop the abundance mentality of win- win and the authenticity of habit 5 (Seek first to understand, then to be understood).
Stephen R. Covey
VALUE DIFFERENCES.
Valuing the differences between people is the essence of synergy. Truly effective people have the humility to recognize their own perceptual limitations and appreciate the resources available through interactions with others.
Stephen R. Covey
OPEN A NEW SCRIPT INSIDE YOU BRAIN.
When you have access to both the intuitive, creative and visual right brain; and the analytical, logical, verbal left brain, then the whole brain is working. In other words, there is psychic energy taking place in your head.
Stephen R. Covey
UNDERSTAND THE ESSENCE OF SYNERGY.
Simply defined, synergy means that the whole is greater than the sum of it parts. It means that the relationship the parts have to each other is a part in and of itself- the most catalytic, empowering, unifying, and exciting part.
Stephen R. Covey
BE SYNERGISTIC WITHIN YOURSELF
Don’t take insults personally, sidestep negative energy, and look for the good in others. You can utilize that good – as different as it maybe – to improve your point of view and enlarge your perspective.
SEE THE OTHER PERSON’S POSITION.
The next time you have a disagreement or confrontation with someone, attempt to understand that persons’s concerns. Address these issues in a creative and mutually beneficial way.
