教你用12件小事，開創自己的大幸福。
在生活的壓力下，我們全都傷痕累累。不滿、失望，這些問題長期折磨著你我的心靈。儘管我們每一天都努力做好自己，但多數人早被自己肩上的重擔壓得喘不過氣，過「好日子」變成一個遙不可及的夢想。
不過其實很多時候，我們對「好日子」的認知都錯了。大家都認為，只要有錢、有閒，長得英俊美麗又受人歡迎，人生就會很美好。錯了！如果這些就是組成「好日子」的要素，難怪會有許多人被生活壓力壓得喘不過氣。
作者柯維（Stephen R. Covey）認為，誠信、責任、有貢獻的生活方式，將遠比追求金錢、名氣等膚淺目標的人生來得快樂，更稱得上所謂的「成功」。
在《Primary Greatness》書中，柯維勾勒出12種帶領人們邁向成功人生的重要價值，這12堂課，將是想追求生命中美好每一天的你，非懂不可的生命密碼。
From Stephen R. Covey—the late, legendary author of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People—a new set of rules for achieving a happy and fulfilling life of primary greatness.
Many of us are hurting. We have chronic problems, dissatisfactions, and disappointments. Although we generally make it through the day, a lot of us feel overwhelmed by burdens we carry. We try to “lift the load of life” each day and sometimes it’s just too much. The idea of living a “great life” seems a distant dream.
Too often, however, we have the wrong idea of what a great life is. We think if only we had enough money, enough leisure, enough good looks or popularity, everything would be great. If that’s what makes for a great life, no wonder so many of us feel so weighed down by the demands of everyday living.
Stephen R. Covey believed there were only two ways to live: a life of primary greatness or a life of secondary greatness. Through his classic books and seminars, he taught that the intrinsic rewards of primary greatness—integrity, responsibility, and meaningful contribution—far outweighed the superficial rewards of secondary greatness—money, popularity, and the self-absorbed, pleasure-ridden life that some people consider “success.”
Dr. Stephen R. Covey’s teachings are beloved and have inspired countless readers and leaders. Primary Greatness once again delivers classic Covey wisdom in a compact and digestible form. In this posthumous work, Covey lays out clearly the 12 levers of success that will lead to a life of primary greatness: Integrity, Contribution, Priority, Sacrifice, Service, Responsibility, Loyalty, Reciprocity, Diversity, Learning, Teaching, and Renewal. For the first time, Covey defines each of these twelve qualities and how they provide the leverage to make your daily life truly “great.”
