Habit 4

4. Think win-win

Teens can learn to foster the belief that it is possible to create an atmosphere of win-win in every relationship. This habit encourage the idea that in any given discussion or situation both parties can arrive at a mutually beneficial solution. Your teen will learn to celebrate the accomplishment of others instead of being threatened by them. Win-Win is a belief that everyone can win. It’s both nice and thought all at once. I won’t step on you, but I won’t be your doormat either. You care about other people and you want them to succeed. But you also care about yourself, and you want to succeed as well. Win-Win is abundant. It is the belief that there’s plenty of success to go around. It’s not either you or me. It’s both of us. It’s not a matter of who gets the biggest piece of the pie. There is more than enough food for everyone. It’s an all you can eat buffet. Win-win always creates more. Perhaps the most surprising benefits of thinking Win-Win is good feelings it brings on. The true test to whether you are thinking Win-Win or one of the alternatives how you feel. Win-lose and Lose-Win thinking will cloud your judgment and feel you with negative feeling.

Win-Win will fill your heart with happy and serene thought. It will give you confidence. Even fill you with light. Think Win-Win or no deal.
