Be proactive!

What is the term proactive?

Proactive: controlling a situation by making things happen or by preparing for possible future problems.

All human are by nature proactive. Although, the proactive muscles may be dormant because we don't use them, they exist in all human.

With the abilities bestowed on man such as self - awareness ;the ability to think about your thought processes, imagination; the ability to see beyond the present situation or reality, conscience; a part of the mind that makes you aware of your actions as being either morally right or wrong, free will; the ability to act based on your self awareness, free of all other clouts/ influence.

Human can take responsibility of his actions. Looking at the word responsibility - "response - ability" meaning the ability to choose your response.

Proactive people take responsibility for their actions. They don't blame people, situation, circumstances, environment or behaviour. They are value driven individuals rather than feeling driven individuals.

Proactive people carry their weather along with them. They are not influenced by weather. Whether it rains or shines make no difference to them.

Proactive people don't allow the behaviour of others define them, their behaviour is a product of their own deliberate and conscious choice based on values not feelings.

In the words of Gandhi, " They cannot take away our self respect if we don't give it to them."

Proactive individuals focus on their "circle of concern" not "circle of influence".

Wouldn't you rather join the proactive individuals?

Being proactive means enjoying your life regardless of all hurdles.

Life is to short and full of ups and downs to spend it reactively.

Be proactive... enjoy your life, for it is brief and there is no time in it for anguish.

To be continued.

From your emotional and social intelligence coach.
