Being proactive is about owning your own decisions, actions, and life, despite what other people do. This means that you're committed to moving forward in a direction you determine, rather than just responding to the ideas and actions of someone else. When you're reactive, someone else is calling the shots.  Difficult situations don’t always bring out the best in us. In fact, trying times at work or at home can sometimes reduce us to the lowest versions of ourselves, eliciting unpleasant emotions like fear, anger, and anxiety. One potential key to turning this whole thing around is the simple idea that it is better to be proactive than reactive.
