Covey’s 7th habit, Sharpening the Saw, is all about keeping your personal self “sharp.” It means regularly renewing and strengthening the four key dimensions of your life: your body, your brain, your heart, and your soul.

• What is the best way to balance your brain? Body? Heart? Soul?

• What are some ways you can keep your saw sharp while in school and then also in your profession?
