what is being proactive

 

Hey Everyone!

As many of you might know that there are 7 habits to effective people, one of them being proactivity. In this blog post, we shall be discussing why ‘being proactive’ is an important trait. So, what is proactivity?

In simple terms, being proactive means thinking about the future and focusing on the things you can control instead of all those you cannot. If you are proactive, you make things happen instead of waiting for them to happen. Breaking down the word, we get ‘active’ which means doing something and ‘pro’ which means before. So, if you are proactive, you are ready for something before it happens.

Being proactive means, you choose to respond to something instead of reacting to it. You take action on the situation yourself instead of giving control to circumstances beyond your control. In this way, not only are you ready for any situation ahead of you, you can actually become a better and more active version of yourself.

Thank you.
