Being proactive…
Our behaviour is a function of our decisions and choices not our conditions.
We have the freedom to choose our responses despite the circumstances. We will always have our own imagination, conscience as to what feels right or wrong and our very own independent will to choose.
Reactive people are:-
- driven by circumstances, conditions whether they be social or physical
- if the weather is good, they feel good, if the weather is bad they feel bad
- when people treat them well, they feel well, when people mistreat them they become defensive
- mistakes are blamed on others, rationalised as being inevitable
- focus on concerns
- use “have” language
Proactive people are:-
- driven by values
- carry their own weather, rain or shine
- mistakes are acknowledged instantly and corrected, and learnt from
- focus on things they can influence
- use language with choice
- Eleanor Roosevelt said “No-one can hurt you without your consent”
Our ability to live a life of choice is our ability to focus on what we can influence and not focus on the concerns we cannot change.
