Ask AI: In _______, all things are built twice... Once in the mind and then again in the real world.

The sentence you’re referring to is from Stephen R. Covey’s book **"The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People."** The complete quote is: > "In **principle-centered leadership** (or in Covey’s philosophy), all things are created twice: first mentally, then physically." Or often simply said as: > "All things are created twice: First in the mind, and then in the real world." You can fill in the blank as: **"In principle-centered leadership, all things are built twice... Once in the mind and then again in the real world."** Or more generally: **"In the process of creation, all things are built twice..."** But if you’re quoting Covey specifically, **"principle-centered leadership"** (or "leadership") fits best.

In "architecture" or "construction", all things are built twice... Once in the mind and then again in the real world. This statement reflects the importance of visualization and planning before carrying out any building process.
