As I was reading the sections about alternative centers I was envisioning people in my mind who reminded me of each one. Then I got to the end of the section and Covey totally called it out how it is easier to recognize someone elses center rather than your own. So then I tried to recognize my own center and it was hard because nobody wants to point out their flaws.
The thing that Covey said that I liked most from this chapter was about the final step of being a principle-centered person. He said you need to feel comfortable with your decision and focus and enjoy it. I thought this was important because so often people play the "what if" game which takes away from your actual choice. This can happen all the time like in college when you wonder what if I would have just stayed in the other night would I have done better on my test? Or I'm sure you can think of numerous other examples.
