You need to be proactive, carve out time in your schedule,
And take responsibility for being
the healthiest person you can be.
No one else is going to do it for you.
- Dr. Mehmet Oz
There's a lot to
be said about a person who is proactive rather than reactive.
There are a lot of
people who like to sit and wait til things happen, then there are people who
like to do things and then become complacent with the results that were yielded.
But as I looked and studied some famous people, I find that they are constantly
being proactive. Meaning, they are always doing something now, rather than
later. It goes to show that when you jump out there and do something before
something happens to you, most of the time something good would happen. Most
would even argue the point of, "at least you tried. rather than not doing
anything".
In today's world,
you HAVE to be proactive, there's just no way around it. The world
isn't setup for people to have second chances like it was in previous years. One
wrong move, one improper plan, and it can all go up in flames that fast. But
most people don't realize that, they live this naive lifestyle til something
happens to them, then they search for a sympathetic ear. Why is that though? Why
do people sit and wait on a bad situation to come? I mean of course you have
those situations where you just can't help because it came out of nowhere. I'm
more so referring to those times where a person can make a plan and either when
something comes up they already have an answer for it, or they can move quickly
to find an answer because they were ready.
Apart of being
proactive means that you're always constantly checking to see what can you get
ahead on. Whether it be bills, school work, cleaning, working out goals,
planning, there's always something that can benefit from you being proactive.
Don't wait til the last minute, when something comes up to be ready and willing
to face the challenge. Because being reactive when something comes up definitely
can have an adverse effect on your mentality. You start feeling all the emotions
of stress, being forced to rush, annoyance, a little depression, oh did I forget
the feeling of being stressed. No one wants to ever feel like that, ever.
People should
really learn how to be proactive these days because if not, then situations will
swallow you whole if you let it. That's just some food for thought. What do you
think about being proactive over reactive, is it a good or bad thing?
Until next time
guys.
