In this episode, Ron and Erin discuss the key principles found in the chapter related to the 1st habit, "Be Proactive".  This chapter is focuses primarily on taking responsibility for your life. Proactive people don’t blame circumstances, conditions, or conditioning for their behavior. They know they can choose their behavior. Reactive people, on the other hand, are often affected by their physical environment. They find external sources to blame for their behavior. If the weather is good, they feel good. If it isn’t, it affects their attitude and performance, and they blame the weather.

You can find the book wherever you buy your favorite books, but we recommend you get a copy of the 30th Anniversary edition, which includes fresh insights from Sean Covey.
