曾被美国《时代》周刊称为“25位最有影响力的美国人之一”的柯维先生，也就是我们熟悉的《高效能人士的7个习惯》的作者，曾经还专门针对孩子写过另外两本著作：《The 7 Habits of Happy Kids》和《The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens》。美国学校把它们归纳为孩子成长的“7棵习惯树”。

这幅海报用一棵大树来比喻孩子一生中要培养的好习惯。

从树根开始从下往上，这7个习惯像一棵树一样逐渐长成，分别是：

1. Be proactive

2. Begin with the end inmind

3. Put first things first

4. Think win-win

5. Seek first to understand,then to be understoo

6. Synergize

7. Sharpen the saw
