Okay, okay. Now don't start wigging out on me just because I happen to be an adult. I know this is a "teens only" site, but I thought I would just stop by to see how things are going. Actually, I'm the guy who wrote The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens, and believe it or not, I used to be a teenager. I'm not kidding! Take a look at these pictures and I'll prove it:

You can stop laughing now. Uh, are you just about finished? Okay, laugh it up, but don't laugh too hard because in a few years YOUR teenage pictures will look just as geeky as mine. (Not that I was a geek or anything!)

All right, here comes the serious part. I know that teens these days face a lot of challenges. It's a pretty different world from the one I grew up in. I wrote this book with you and your challenges in mind. I think that this book can give you some good direction in life. It'll help you realize that you have the power to change your circumstances, regardless of where you were born or how you were raised. It'll teach you how to set goals so you can look forward to the future instead of fearing it. And it'll show you how to be an effective leader by following your heart instead of the crowd. There's a lot of other good stuff in there too, but you need to read it and discover it for yourself.

Read the book, change some of your habits, and I guarantee you that things will be different. Life is good, and you deserve a good life! (Pretty catchy phrase, huh? I thought that one all up by myself.)





Sean Covey, retired teenager and author of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens.
