True. The crux of the 7 Habits - 1, 2, 3, & 7 in particular - were inspired by Mormonism and Logotherapy (Viktor Frankl). The tactical stuff is lifted from “Connections”, written two years before 7 Habits of Highly Effective People was published.
However, Covey’s overall message seems to go in a very different direction than Hyatt and other productivity authors. Much less tactical, more philosophical/spiritual/relational.
True enough. Perhaps I’m an old soul, but I find the original thinkers more interesting than the version 2.0s.
