    About this audiobook

    From the author of the wildly popular bestseller The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens comes the go-to guide that helps teens cope with major challenges they face in their lives—now updated for today’s social media age.

    In this newly revised edition, Sean Covey helps teens figure out how to approach the six major challenges they face: gaining self-esteem, dealing with their parents, making friends, being wise about sex, coping with substances, and succeeding at school and planning a career.

    Covey understands the pain and confusion that teens and their parents experience in the face of these weighty, life-changing, and common difficulties. He shows readers how to use the 7 Habits to cope with, manage, and ultimately conquer each challenge—and become happier and more productive.

    Now updated for the digital and social media age, Covey covers how technology affects these six decisions, keeping the information and advice relevant to today’s teenagers.

      This was a great bok to listen to i recommend
    • 4/5
      This book was written for a teenager audience in order to guide teenagers in learning how to make effective, appropriate decisions now that will shape their lives for the future. Covey divides his chapters by topic, focusing on providing teenagers with applicable, relevant advice and information needed in order to make appropriate decisions. Covey supports his ideas with cartoons, graphics, and real-life stories. Because of the amount of information provided, this book may be best read by focusing on one chapter at a time. Highly recommended for high school students.
    • 4/5
      This book is of course more for teens, but a very good read for adults, especially adults with youth in their lives. Reminds you what they are going through - and a quick reminder of what you as an adult should be working towards to be successful.
    • 4/5

This well written, easy to use, self-help book for young teens is a great addition to any library collection.

It also includes a helpful bibliography and indexes ? subjects, themes are conveniently found so it is easy for readers to reference specific sections.
    • 4/5
      Great book for teens to read. Also useful for parents, teachers, and other professionals.
    • 5/5
      Sean Covey teaches youth how to make good decisions in key areas of their lives through anecdotes, humor and sound principles in the very readable book. He builds upon the lessons from his first book, The Seven Habits of Highly Effective Teens, and goes further to show how those habits can be utilized to make good decisions. If teens follow Covey's guidelines they will find themselves moving farther ahead than they believed they could without dragging a lifetime full of regrets.
