The 7 Habits of Happy Kids

Help your kids become the best version of themselves they can be! Perfect for kids grades 6-12

Habit 1: Be Proactive®

You’re in Charge

I am a responsible person. I take the initiative. I choose my actions, attitudes, and moods. I do not blame others for my actions. I make good, responsible choices without being asked, even when no one is looking.

Habit 2: Begin With the End in Mind®

Have a Plan

I plan and set goals. I do things that have meaning and make a difference. I am an important part of my classroom and contribute to my school’s mission and vision. I look for ways to be a good citizen.

Habit 3: Put First Things First®

Work First, Then Play

I spend my time on the most important things. This means I say no to things I know I should not do. I set priorities, make a schedule, and follow my plan. I am disciplined and organized.

Habit 4: Think Win-Win®

Everyone Can Win

I balance the courage to get what I want with consideration for what others want. I make deposits in other’s Emotional Bank Accounts. When conflicts arise, I look for third alternatives.

Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood®

Listen Before You Talk

I listen to other people’s ideas and feelings. I try to see things from their viewpoints. I listen to others without interrupting. I am confident in voicing my ideas. I look people in the eyes when talking.

Habit 6: Synergize®

Together Is Better

I value other people’s strengths and learn from them. I get along well with others, even people who are different than me. I work well in groups. I seek out other people’s ideas to solve problems because I know that by teaming with others, we can create better solutions than anyone alone. I am humbled.

Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw®

Balance Feels Best

I take care of my body by eating right, exercising, and getting sleep. I spend time with family and friends. I learn in many ways and places, not just at school. I find meaningful ways to help others.
