The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People

Stephen Covey

Covey's second habit — begin with the end in mind — is the seed of reverse engineering from outcome: every result is created twice, first in the mind, then in the world. The book gives the full seven-habit architecture, but Habits 1, 2, and 3 are the core of the planning and direction work and worth extended time on their own.
