7 Habits of Highly Successful Teens Habit 2
Habit 2: Begin With the end in Mind
If teens aren’t clear about where want to end up in life, about their values goals, and what they stand for, they will wander , waste time, and be tossed to and fro by the options of others. Help your teen create a personal mission statement which will act as a road and direct and guide his decision making process.
  “keep your eyes on the prize.” Determine your desired prize and don’t quit until you have realized the achievement of your prize. Then set another prize, another goal or desire that you would really like to achieve. Begin with the achievement of your prize in mind; know where you are going.
One prize or goal you definitely need to establish for yourself is the prize of an honorable graduation from high school- that you will receive your diploma honestly and with integrity- that you earned it with perfect honesty.

How will they deal with peer pressure? Motivation? Success or lack thereof? The life of a teenager is full of tough issues and life-changing decisions. As a parent, you are responsible to help them learn the principles and ethics that will help them reach their goals live a successful life.
While it’s well and good to tell kids how to live their lives, “teens watch what you do more than they listen to what you say, “Covey says. So practice what you preach. Your example can be very influential.
Covey himself has done well by following a parent’s example. His dad, Stephen Covey, wrote the book The Habits Successful People, which sold over 15 million copies. Sean’s a chip of the old block, and no slacker. His own book has rung in a more than respectable 2 million copies sold.
