The win/win concept as used by Stephen R Covey in the book, "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People" has nothing to do with winning or acquiring anything...

It is a concept where you try to resolve differences where both parties win... as opposed to "If I win, you lose..." or "If you win, I must lose..."

There idea is to find a way where everyone comes out winning...
