Be a Champion of Change with the 7 Habits  Are you able to change important areas of your life?  Are you just living day to day, or toward a hope?  Do you prioritize your time and energy well?  How often do you feel bullied by others?  Do you understand others ... and vice versa?  What are your unique talents? Are they important?  Does your life often feel “out of balance”?  What does “success” mean to you? (family, friends, community, hobby, career, faith)  What is required to obtain that success?

34. Are you willing to change course? Two battleships assigned to the training squadron had been at sea on maneuvers in heavy weather for several days. I was serving on the lead battleship and was on watch on the bridge as night fell. The visibility was poor with patchy fog, so the captain remained on the bridge keeping an eye on all activities. Shortly after dark, the lookout on the wing of the bridge reported, “Light, bearing on the starboard bow.” “Is it steady or moving astern?” the captain called out. Lookout replied, “Steady, captain,” which meant we were on a dangerous collision course with that ship. The captain then called to the signalman, “Signal that ship: We are on a collision course, advise you to change course 20 degrees.” Back came a signal, “Advisable for you to change course 20 degrees.” The captain said, “Send, I’m a captain, change course 20 degrees.” “I’m a navy officer second class,” came the reply. “You had better change course 20 degrees.” By that time the captain was furious. He spat out, “Send, I’m a battleship. Change course 20 degrees.” Back came the flashing light, “I’m a lighthouse.” We changed course. Will you crash against the principles ... or change course?
