To Live The Life You Want to Live: Be Proactive
Do you also let yourself get influenced by other people? By their mood? Or by what they’re saying? I’ve never really thought about it until I read the book “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People” by Stephen R. Covey. My mood is currently influenced by the nice weather outside and I’m happier than usual. I’m […]
