3rd alternative

Covey always work and deliver in audacious ways only. Now he came out a whole huge book on "SYNERGY", titled " 3 rd ALTERNATIVE Solving Life's Most Difficult Problems".

We can remember in his earlier land mark issue 7 habits of highly effective people, the habit number 6 was synergy.

Now when i started reading this 3 rd alternative, i pulled 7 habits and gave a glance.

it talked about right brain, left brain and synergizing both. That was the time I got exposed to this right/left brain concept.

And his suggested phrase " Good, You see it differently" with some one, when we came across some difference in opinions. what a great phrase, valuing the different views.

This 6 th habit chapter ends like this:

When you see only two alternatives - your and the "wrong" one- you can look for a synergistic third alternative.

Now the way Covey expanding this chapter in to the 3 rd ALTERNATIVE book, is awesome.

I am not able resit to give a mind boggling quote from this book as below:

One plus one equals two - EXPECT IN SYNERGISTIC SITUATION.

Think, simple yet profound.
