Stephen Covery's 7 Habits and SuperME

Let’s explore Stephen Covey’s 7 Habits of Highly Effective People through the lens of SuperME Unleashed and PLG (Purpose, Love, Gratitude).

Habit 1: Be Proactive

Covey: Take responsibility for your life, don’t blame circumstances.

SuperME: This is exactly moving from Survival-Me (fear, excuses, blame) to SuperME (ownership). Gratitude helps you see possibilities instead of problems.

Habit 2: Begin with the End in Mind

Covey: Live with purpose and vision.

SuperME: Aligned perfectly. Purpose is the first energy of PLG — living by who you are, not by roles or titles.

Habit 3: Put First Things First

Covey: Prioritize what matters most.

SuperME: Purpose guides choices, Love gives balance, Gratitude keeps perspective. You focus on impact, not noise.

Habit 4: Think Win-Win

Covey: Seek mutual benefit in relationships.

SuperME: Love in action. A SuperME doesn’t compete out of fear but collaborates out of abundance.


Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood

Covey: Empathetic listening before speaking.

SuperME: Love again. Deep listening is one of the hallmarks of Vivian Passion Koh’s approach — presence, not performance.

Habit 6: Synergize

Covey: Combine strengths to achieve more together.

SuperME: This is the ripple effect — one SuperME inspiring others until SuperWE emerges.

Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw

Covey: Continuous self-renewal (physical, social, mental, spiritual).

SuperME: Gratitude for the body, Purpose for growth, Love for connection. Renewal is not duty but natural when you live from your SuperME.

🌟 Conclusion

Yes — Stephen Covey’s 7 Habits and SuperME Unleashed are deeply aligned. The difference?

Covey gives principles of effectiveness.

SuperME gives the inner engine (PLG) that sustains those principles with heart, resilience, and joy.


Covey helps you “do.”
SuperME helps you “be.”

Together, they don’t just make you effective — they make you whole. Grab your SuperME book at https://asiatrainers.org/smubook

If Not You, Who Else?

I learnt this very powerful 5-word phrase from Singapore's highest ever box-office movie ever: "Ah Boys to Men II". In one scene, the recruits were about to start their 3-day field camp.  Their Officer-in-Command asked them, "Before we moved out, anybody not feeling well?"  All the soldiers replied loudly, "No Sir!!!" "Gentlemen", continued the Officer, "Every time the training gets tougher, one thought comes to your mind, 'Why Must I Serve National Service?' "My answer to you is, 'If Not You, Then Who Else?'" Wow!  What a powerful phrase!  If Not You, Who Else may mean: You are the most suitable person, and we can't find anyone better than you.  This is appreciation at the highest level How can you push this responsibility to someone else? I am making a request to you specifically, please don't reject my request Can you find me another person more suitable than you? Please refer me anot...

How I Became a Fortune Teller: Leveraging NLP, Fear and Greed, and Motivational Theories

Becoming a fortune teller wasn’t part of my childhood dreams. It started as an experiment, fueled by my curiosity about human behavior and the subtle forces that drive our decisions. Over time, what began as a study of psychology and human interaction evolved into an unexpected career—one where I use the tools of NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), the primal drivers of fear and greed, and motivational theories to help people uncover their paths. The First Step: Understanding the Human Psyche I was always fascinated by why people do what they do. During my university years, I studied psychology, particularly the works of Abraham Maslow, B.F. Skinner, and Victor Vroom. Their theories provided insights into motivation, reinforcement, and decision-making. But I wanted to move beyond the academic realm and see how these theories worked in real life. Around this time, I discovered NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming). This framework for understanding communication and behavior is based on the...
