Quote by Stephen Covey
In addition to self-awareness, imagination and conscience, it is the fourth human endowment-independent will-that really makes effective self-management possible. It is the ability to make decisions and choices and to act in accordance with them. It is the ability to act rather than to be acted upon, to proactively carry out the program we have developed through the other three endowments. Empowerment comes from learning how to use this great endowment in the decisions we make every day.
Summary
This quote emphasizes the importance of independent will as a fundamental aspect of effective self-management. It suggests that true empowerment and self-control stem from the ability to make conscious decisions and choices, rather than being passive or reactive. The ability to act in alignment with our self-awareness, imagination, and conscience allows us to proactively carry out our desired plans. By recognizing and utilizing our independent will, we can take charge of our lives and actively shape our future through the decisions we make on a daily basis.
