Note from Carol 

Reactions.

This is a tricky subject. Why?

Because most times...we actually Do Not Realize we are in "reactionary mode." It's a process and the first step is "to pay attention."

OK cool...How?

Well, in real life, it looks like this: "Wow, I can't believe that guy just cut me off in traffic! Can you believe the audacity of some people? They just don't think of others. It's sickening." Then, what happens? Well that situation can really eat away at you. Then your peace is disturbed. What happens then? A chain reaction.

  • You might be short with your kids/loved ones;
  • You might get into an accident
  • You might forget an errand
  • You definitely are not going to be Thinking Big.

We let the event control our behavior while we scramble just to stay afloat. Proactivity, on the other hand, allows us to face situations with some degree of confidence, with an “I’ve got this” kind of attitude. You’ve anticipated any struggles along the way and instead of running away from them, you’re able to accept them as part of the ride.


Being proactive isn’t a gift given to some and not others; there are ways that you can develop this quality and roll with the ebb and flow of the tide, instead of constantly crashing against the shore.

Here are three ways to help you:
