lifestyle of a person for enhancement towards an active lifestyle proposition. The physical
dimension of the model includes two aspects; healthy consumption and physical well-being.

schedule plan with an effective working environment. Physical well-being of an individual
includes good eating habit with team building so that an effective environment gets maintained at

body structure. Thus, a keen focus is required for an individual on the physical frame which
constitute in 7 habits of effective people. Another dimension which involves practices of
effective people is the mental dimension. Mental dimension is related to the brain of a person
and needs a clear focus, and more emphasise for proper coordination of activities. The mental
aspect is focusing on discipline lifestyle and wise and efficient knowledge. Good knowledge,
balance life, improvisation in lifestyle and standard with a focus on specific objectives all are
concerned as a part of the good habit. It is essential to manage a proper emphasis on the mental
dimension as well so that a person can manage their ultimate life.
These two are a major dimension of an individual life which constitutes an effective place. With

the effective leader and greater satisfaction of life. An effective leader is one which focuses on
coaching and mentoring with suitable workplace culture. A true leader always supports the team
and guide team for efficient working. A greater level of satisfaction has been depicted with the
