William Shakespeare is considered one of the greatest English dramatists and poets. He was born in 1564 in Stratford-upon-Avon and wrote several famous plays and poems. The poem "Blow, Blow, Thou Winter Wind" compares the bitterness of winter to the bitterness of ingratitude from friends who are forgetful of past kindness. It suggests that the cold weather's bite is not as sharp as the pain of being forgotten by friends one has helped in the past.

This summary provides the key details from the poem in 3 sentences:
Three jolly farmers make a bet that each can dance the others off the ground without stopping, and they proceed to dance through many towns and landscapes over a long distance without rest. After passing through over a dozen locations, they finally reach the sea, exhausted but having proven they could dance the entire way without stopping as they had bet.
THE LISTENERS
Walter de la Mare was a 20th century English poet best known for his poem "The Listeners". The poem describes a traveler on horseback who visits an empty house deep in a dark forest at night. Upon arriving, he knocks on the door hoping for a response but hears only the sounds of nature, leaving him confused about who or what came knocking in response. The poem creates an atmosphere of mystery and leaves things open to the reader's imagination about what listeners may have heard the traveler's call.

7 Habits of Highly Effective People.pptx
Covey says most people look for quick fixes. They see a big success and want to know how he did it, believing (and hoping) they can do the same following a quick bullet list.
But real change, the author says, comes not from the outside in, but from the inside out. And the most fundamental way of changing yourself is through a paradigm shift.
That paradigm shift is a new way of looking at the world. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People presents an approach to effectiveness based on character and principles.
The first three habits indeed deal with yourself because it all starts with you. The first three habits move you from dependence from the world to the independence of making your own world.
Habits 4, 5 and 6 are about people and relationships. The will move you from independence to interdependence. Such, cooperating to achieve more than you could have by yourself.
The last habit, habit number 7, focuses on continuous growth and improvement.
