Reactive vs Proactive How to Train Yourself to Act, Not React

Meaningful Life Skills with Rabbi Simon Jacobson

Are you reactive or proactive? Most of us tend to be more reactive, and there are several reasons for this.
Firstly, we start our lives as children reacting to our parents—their attitudes, smiles, approval, and disapproval and we mirror their behavior.
Secondly, as we grow older, we seek acceptance from our peers, friends, and society. This often leads us to follow others rather than take initiative. Fear plays a significant role, especially for those who grew up in insecure environments. The fear of potentially failing or facing disapproval, makes us more likely to react cautiously. Being reactive feels less risky.
Join Rabbi Simon Jacobson in this critical discussion and discover how to become more proactive in your life -- and how that will significantly improve many of your decisions, as well as unleash your great potential, helping you be more successful. Learn methods on how to take control of your life rather than simply reacting to others, which in turn will transform every aspect of your life.
