7 1/2 Habits

I was not impressed with the 7 1/2 Habits as covered in Thing #2. Everything seemed fairly intuitive. The Learning Contract strikes me as yet another one of those ways to narrowly formalize something that everybody does naturally in their own way. It seems redundant. If you're working in a library you better already know how to set goals and achieve them. In fact, if you're older than 21 years of age you should know how to follow the steps you need in whatever endeavor you're pursuing.
